Naamah's Blessing

Více o knize

Moirin has returned to Terre d'Ange to find the royal family broken. Wracked by unrelenting grief at the loss of his wife, Queen Jehanne, King Daniel is unable to rule. Prince Thierry, leading an expedition to explore the deadly jungles of Terra Nova, is halfway across the world. And three year old Desirée is a vision of her mother: tempestuous, intelligent, and fiery, but desperately lonely, and a vulnerable pawn in a game of shifting political allegiances. As tensions mount, King Daniel asks that Moirin become Desirée's oath-sworn protector. Navigating the intricate political landscape of the Court is a difficult and potentially dangerous challenge, and when dire news arrives from overseas, the spirit of Queen Jehanne visits Moirin in a dream and bids her undertake an impossible quest... one which could take her to the other side of the world. Another specter from the past haunts Moirin too: Raphael de Mereliot, her manipulative former lover, who travelled with Thierry in the New World. Years ago, Raphael forced Moirin to help him summon demons in his quest to acquire mystical abilities of his own. It led to a disaster that nearly killed them all... and, in the New World, it may still have the chance to do so...
