"I look forward to reading every Tessa Gratton novel we are lucky enough to have." --Robin McKinley Inspired by Shakespeare's Henry IV, Lady Hotspur continues the saga of Innis Lear, centuries later, as revolution, love, and a betrayal corrupt the descendants of two warring kingdoms. Aremoria has too long existed without magic. Ancient curses have found their voices again in hauntings and mysterious murders, nameless wizards are returning home, and the stars have only a single prophecy to give: the dragon, the lion, the wolf together will make Aremoria whole, or sunder it forever. Hal was once a knight sworn to protect her future queen Banna. Yet, after a rebellion led by her own mother, she now holds the position as queen of Aremoria. Guilt and bloody memories plague her. Isarna, known as Lady Hotspur for her temper and warcraft, has never been more lost. Unlike her former lover Hal, Hotspur never expected their love to have a happy ending as female heirs to powerful families. But she was blindsided by Hal's betrayal. Banna has fled to Innis Lear to lick her wounds, heal her heart, and plot revenge against those who would usurp her crown. War is hell--and so are other people.
