Description

The critically acclaimed Queen of the Dark Ages introduces a chilling novel set against the backdrop of the Peasants' Revolt.

A gem, crafted in the darkness ... Maitland has produced another gripping tale, from a darker age, which has surprising resonances with the present

Maitland has created a rich and believable medieval world with extraordinary attention to detail and finely wrought prose; her huge, deftly drawn cast of characters spring vividly to life

Karen Maitland truly is the Doyenne of medieval fiction ... A tempting, beguiling and truly bewitching read

An immensely powerful tale ... This is masterly storytelling, generous to the reader from start to finish

A riveting, page-turning whopper of a book that had me captivated - in fact, positively bewitched - from the start. Blending history, superstition, folklore, murder, mystery and witchcraft sublimely, this ... is an absolute must-read

Beautifully written with an uncanny eye for detail

Just put it on your list to read. You won't regret it at all

A wonderfully Gothic atmosphere... Maitland has produced another gripping tale, from a darker age, which has surprising resonances with the present

I relished the colour, the meticulously researched detail and strong characters

Glorious stuff, intriguing and thrilling... a great story well told
