Publisher Description

From seven bestselling authors, including New York Times bestseller Kate Quinn, comes a gripping and vividly imagined novel following an epic struggle of rebellion against the might of Rome.

Britannia: land of mist and magic clinging to the western edge of the Roman Empire. A red-haired queen named Boudica led her people in a desperate rebellion against the might of Rome, an epic struggle destined to consume heroes and cowards, young and old, Roman and Briton . . . and these are their stories.

A calculating queen foresees the fires of rebellion in a king’s death.

A neglected slave girl seizes her own courage as Boudica calls for war.

An idealistic tribune finds manhood in a brutal baptism of blood and slaughter.

A death-haunted Druid challenges the gods themselves to ensure victory for his people.

A conflicted young warrior finds himself torn between loyalties to tribe and to Rome.

An old champion struggles for everlasting glory in the final battle against the legions.

A pair of fiery princesses fight to salvage the pieces of their mother’s dream as the ravens circle.

A novel in seven parts, overlapping stories of warriors and peacemakers, queens and slaves, Romans and Britons who cross paths during Boudica’s epic rebellion. But who will survive to see the dawn of a new Britannia, and who will fall to feed the ravens?

A Year of Ravens Reviews

4.0
“Absolutely stunning book. I only knew the broad strokes of Boudica’s rebellion so it was fascinating to dive into the details and learn the things that caused it, the effects it had, etc. I’m Kate Quinn’s number one fan so I knew anything she was part of was going to be amazing, and it was. All seven stories wove together seamlessly and gave us an incredibly fleshed out narrative. The brutality of this time period and setting was palpable and the end made me want to cry. Side note: I found the authors’ notes at the end to be very helpful in understanding the book as a whole and the approach they took in writing and shaping the story.”
