Roses of Roazon
Lush and imaginative historical fantasy set in a parallel-world medieval BrittanyThe land of Arvorig is ruled by the Duke of Roazon, under the guiding authority of the Church. Peace has lasted here for so many generations that its inhabitants have consigned to legend all memory of Autrys, the dark shadow of Roazon, which was banished from the world when its first duke assumed office. But when the new Duke, Joscelin, is accused of heresy, a gate is subtly opened for Autrys to return. Meanwhile, other princes see their opportunity to seize power, and Arvorig itself is in deadly peril. As all those touched by war must make up their minds where their loyalties lie, in the end it is not the noblemen and warriors whose influence will be greatest. Lesser folk and small decisions can produce greater consequences, but most of all the fate of the duchy now rests in the nature of Joscelin himself. 'Vivid and atmospheric . . . a rip-roaring good read' Starburst 'A beautifully written and thoroughly enjoyable tale . . . captivating all the way through to its stunning conclusion, it will leave you wanting more' Dreamwatch

Then soundlessly, like a ghost out of the night, a pale blur of wings swooped over the crowd of bandits, who ducked their heads and cried out in alarm. Vair crouched down as he caught a glimpse of crooked talons. It was an owl, gliding down to the top of the central rock. Even in the darkness, his eyes glared amber.

A silver horn, lost in the mists of time, holds a secret that will change the land of Riverbourne forever...
