Boudica: Dreaming the Hound - first UK edition

by Manda Scott - signed

Subtitled 'Dreaming the Hound', this is the third part of a trilogy of the life of Boudica. AD 57: much of Britannia has been under Roman occupation for over ten years, with key areas in the south and east administered as vassal states, where the tribes pay costly tithes to the Emperor in return for the right to continue living on their own lands. On the sacred isle of Mona, the Boudica or Bringer of Victory as Breaca has long been hailed, now knows for certain that her lover, Caradoc - betrayed, captured and kept hostage in Rome - will never return to her. She decides to leave Mona where she and her warriors have been waging a guerilla war, and to take the fight to the Eceni heartland where it is needed most.

Book has navy blue boards with the title in gold on the spine, signed by the author on the title page.
