The
Challenge
by
Kim Iverson Headlee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE:
Historical Fantasy Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
The
gauntlet is thrown. One must die. Refusal is not an option.
Arthur
the High King of Breatein has fallen captive of a longtime enemy, the
Saxon warrior-princess Camilla, who lusts to avenge the death of her
betrothed at Gyan’s hands and will stop at nothing, even the black
arts, to achieve her goal. Because Gyan and Arthur have grown
estranged, she fears that Arthur may side with Camilla and make her
his new queen.
To
meet Camilla’s challenge, Gyan must face all her demons—public as
well as private.
Excerpt
The guard
drew a long breath. “Your Majesty, it is time.”
Time to face
all my demons, private as well as public.
At her nod,
he returned to his post outside—a mite reluctantly, she observed.
“Any last
advice?” she asked Merlin at the tent’s entrance. She barked a
mirthless laugh. “How does one fight a demon?”
“You must
not forget your shield.”
She felt her
eyebrows rise. “You know I am no novice warrior.”
“I am not
talking of wood and metal, Your Majesty.”

AUTHOR
Bio and Links:
Kim
Headlee lives on a farm in southwestern Virginia with her family,
cats, goats, Great Pyrenees goat guards, and assorted wildlife.
People and creatures come and go, but the cave and the 250-year-old
house ruins—the latter having been occupied as recently as the
mid-twentieth century—seem to be sticking around for a while yet.
Kim
is a Seattle native and a direct descendent of twentieth-century
Russian nobility. Her grandmother was a childhood friend of the
doomed Grand Duchess Anastasia, and the romantic yet tragic story of
how Babushka escaped Communist Russia with the aid of her American
husband will most certainly one day fuel one of Kim’s novels.
Another novel in the queue will involve her husband’s ancestor, the
seventh-century proto-Viking king of the Swedish colony in Russia.
For
the time being, however, Kim has plenty of work to do in creating her
projected 8-book Arthurian series, The Dragon’s Dove Chronicles,
and other novels clamoring for attention. She has been a published
novelist since 1999, beginning with the original editions of
Dawnflight (Sonnet Books, Simon & Schuster) and Liberty (writing
as Kimberly Iverson, HQN Books, Harlequin).
