The Radiant Child

A terrific action adventure ... a fallen war hero and a little girl searching for peace and family, find far more than they needed ... or wanted ... Norstalos stands on the brink of destruction. But the three invading armies are probably the least of Queen Merren's problems. Her people despise their would-be saviours, the army of goblins she has won to her side, while the dragons want Martil and the fabled Dragon Sword for themselves. Now Merren must make the most painful choice of her life ... marry Count Sendric for the good of the Royal House or the man who loves her, the troubled Champion, Martil. praise for Duncan Lay:'Hugely enjoyable' Daily telegraph 'For fans of David Gemmell' Bookseller+Publisher
