P. C. Cast
From P. C. Cast, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the landmark House of Night urban fantasy series, comes an epic, lusty, magic-filled romantasy about British warrior queen Boudicca. Perfect for fans of Sue Lynn Tan and Madeline Miller!
In Roman-occupied Britain, the Iceni tribe crowns an extraordinary new queen. Tall and flame-haired, Boudicca is devoted to Andraste, the Iceni’s patron goddess, known for her raven familiar, her fierceness and her swirling blue tattoos. Boudicca and her two young daughters will carry the tribe forward in dangerous times.
Roman tax collector Catus Decianus, expecting weakness in a female ruler, launches a devastating attack on the tribe’s stronghold. Boudicca and her family barely survive—but they refuse to bend the knee. She calls a war council, bringing together her most trustworthy allies, including her childhood friend Rhan, now a powerful Druid seer, and the horse master Maldwyn, whose devotion to Boudicca runs deeper than a warrior to a queen.
Surprising the Romans, Boudicca’s armies sack the wealthy cities of Camulodunum, Londinium and Veralamium. As the snow falls, the Celts retreat to a hidden valley to plot their assault on the remaining Roman legions, determined to force the invaders from Britan.
But in the jagged ice of winter the Druid Rhan foresees a tragic end to Boudicca’s rebellion. Although the defeat of the Iceni is spelled out in signs sent by the gods, Rhan swears she will alter the future and save her queen. Now the battle-hardened Boudicca must put her trust in the powers of the otherworld to save her from both the traitors in her midst and from Rome’s mighty legions.
Inspired by the rich history of Boudicca’s attack on Roman Britain, bestselling author P. C. Cast crafts an epic, mythic retelling of one of time’s most legendary female warriors.

I’ve always heard and admired the various versions of the brave and fierce Warrior Queen Boudicca, so when I happened across this book, I was a little skeptical, yet, interested— I wondered what version I would encounter this time… holy wow… Yes! Yes! Yes!! Wonderful book- masterfully written!!
You really feel like Boudicca is talking to you- like you’re there. You can feel her emotions and understand her thoughts, her fears… and especially her pain. I don’t want to give any spoilers, but there is some heartbreaking brutality in the beginning- had me in tears… it was hard to read… but stick with it. I promise, it’s soooo worth it. And even though we all know - or -*think* we know how Boudicca’s story ends… I promise you this book will surprise you- ALSO… this book is a fantastic testament of “it’s about the journey” - about the experience along the way— how we live, how we love, the things we value and how hard we’re willing to fight for and protect those things… and of course- faith. The characters are all well developed, but Boudicca herself js… *chef’s kiss* Boudicca’s unwavering faith in her Goddess Andraste… her deep, pure, soul-piecing love for Rhan, her daughters, and Maldwyn … her loyalty & commitment to her people, and her outright strength and bravery are awe inspiring… and every bit of how I’ve always imaged her to be. This book is a well written treasure and a spectacular escape into historical fiction… loved it!!
Historical Fiction Amazingness!!
