Description

Shadow of the Swords is Book Two of "The Ancient Bloodlines Trilogy" John and Mistress Gwen are caught up in a deadly struggle for magical swords and control of the Holy Land. Who has the Power? It is the year 1113, and the fanatical Knights of The Order are again seeking to control Gwen and separate her from John. "Shadow of the Swords" continues the fast-moving tale of intrigue, adventure and romance that began in "The Power in the Dark." The action shifts from quiet Wessex villages to Henry I's royal court, Stonehenge, a French nunnery and the Isle of Cyprus. Why is John called Gilles de Plantard, and what is his relationship to Gwen? And how are they linked to the Swords of Power that threaten the Crusaders' occupation of the Holy Land? In this world of fierce battles and enduring friendships, the young protagonists must grow up quickly as they are reluctantly thrust into positions of power and influence for which they are ill prepared.
