The Fire of Winter – hinnat ja saatavuus

She is known as Lady Macbeth. What leads her down the path of murder? What secrets fire her destiny? Gruah, the granddaughter of King C n ad III of the Royal Clan Alpin, marries two men in less than six months, one she loves and one she hates; one in secret, the other arranged by the High King of Scotland. At the age of eighteen, she lays her palm upon the ancient stone of Scone and sees her destiny as Queen of Scotland, and she vows to do whatever necessary to see her true love, Macbeth macFindlaech, beside her on the throne. Amid the fiery times and heated onslaughts from Denmark and England, as the rule of Scotland hangs in the balance, Gruah seeks to win the throne and bring revenge upon the monsters of her childhood, no matter the cost or amount of blood tainting her own hands; yet, an unexpected meeting with the King called the Confessor causes her to question her bloody path and doubt her once blazing pagan faith. Will she find redemption or has the blood of her past fire-branded her soul? The story weaves the play by William Shakespeare with the actual history of Macbeth and his Queen in 11th-century Scotland. "...a woman's story at a winter's fire..." (Macbeth, Act III, Scene IV) "This beautifully written reworking of the Macbeth tale told from Lady Macbeth's point-of-view flows from the page and you quickly become immersed in the politics and intrigues of feudal Scotland as she fights for her rightful place and her true love A mesmerising read that grips from start to finish and Gruah is now one of my all-time favourite literary crushes.
