content: After two previous matrimonial disasters, Kelson Haldane, King of Gwynedd, *finally* marries in 'King Kelson's Bride'. His first fiancee was murdered at the altar. His second fiancee, Rothana, ended up marrying someone else, his first cousin Conall, then being widowed almost immediately. Needless to say, the young king has been under immense pressure to marry someone, anyone suitable, and procreate, given the unstable political situation. Now, he does. Who is she? That I won't tell you. Let's just say, she's 'suitable' and surprising. Kelson's friends and family members are all here too, with some other surprises along the way, and the Camberian council is muddying the waters in their unique fashion, to add more complications to the plot.Katherine Kurtz has done it again with a book that mixes realpolitik, magic and medieval Christianity. Her fans will be delighted. As I predicted, I stayed up all night to read this one. You will too.
