Queen of Magic Susanne L Lambdin

Taliesin, the Raven Mistress, has been captured by Prince Sertorius, and she is being taken to the capital, along with Sertorius' army of Garridan soldiers. Sertorius' intentions are unclear-does he go to aid his father, King Frederick, who is besieged by the Wolf Prince and a rebel army, or for some other, darker motive? While the Raven Clan grows, tucked away in Penkill Castle, Taliesin escapes, only to receive a message that King Frederick needs her help. While she wants to help the king, Ragnal, the God of War, has other ideas. Arriving at last at the capital, Taliesin learns the Royal Court of Caladonia is far more corrupt than expected, dabbling in political intrigue, dark magic, and murder. Will Taliesin be able to convince the Magic Realms to help her defeat the Wolf Prince and Ragnal, or will the kingdom fall to the war god and the Wolfen? Unless Taliesin and her magical sword, Ringerike, can defeat her many enemies and forge an alliance with the High Council, the barbarians of Skarda, the darklings, and a dragon named Bonaparte, she may spend the rest of her days on a leash. But she is a sha-tar, a natural-born witch, and it is her destiny to do the impossible, and prove to all that she is-the Queen of Magic.
