GUARDIAN OF THE PROMISE by IRENE RADFORD
Merlin's Descendants book 4
Radford's adroit mix of dark fantasy and Elizabethan politics, involving the complicated rivalries among the English, Scottish, French and Spanish, continues to entertain. The fourth novel in Irene Radford's acclaimed saga of Merlin and his descendants follows the children of twin brothers Donovan and Griffin in a magic-fueled struggle to protect Elizabethan England from enemies-both mortal and demonic.
Still in love with Mary Queen of Scots, Donovan Kirkwood must tread a delicate balance between his desire to free the imprisoned Mary and his loyalty to Queen Elizabeth. Meanwhile, Donovan's niece Deidre and son Hal travel to Paris to try to rescue the city's Protestants from the depredations of El Lobison, the sadistic Master of Wolves. Years later, Donovan's daughter Betsy starts to embrace the darker side of magic in an effort to cement her claim to the title Pendragon. However, it is Deidre who in the final battle assumes the Pendragon mantle to challenge the enemy in England's time of greatest need.
