The Lion's Legacy: A stirring romantic tale of revenge, honour and burning passion in Norman England (Conqueror Trilogy Book 3)
Henry I is dying and, with no sons, he knows he must force his barons to swear allegiance to his indomitable daughter, Matilda, the Empress Maud, if he is to secure his legacy. But when a second heir emerges – another grandchild of William the Conqueror, Stephen, Count of Blois and Mortain – the Lion’s Legacy looks destined to be one of civil war.
As a dynastic struggle tears England apart and blood is split on battlefields across the land, power passes from Stephen to Matilda and back again with every change of heart and loyalty.
For Matilda, who struggles to reconcile the steel of a Queen with the passions of a young woman, the price of power is increasingly heavy.
This final book of Juliet Dymoke epic Conqueror Trilogyis a stirring tale of cruelty and honour; of revenge and forgiveness; of refined courtly love and burning passion.
