‘Magic, myth, political intrigue and a fierce and unique love story . . . I devoured it’ – Cassandra Clare, author of Sword Catcher
Across a war-torn medieval Britain filled with ancient magic, two great warriors – a determined queen and damned immoral – fall in love. Song of the Huntress is an epic feminist fantasy that reimagines The Wild Hunt folklore, from Lucy Holland, author of Sistersong.
Britain, 60 AD. Hoping to save her lover and her land from the Romans, Herla makes a desperate pact with the Otherworld King, becoming the legendary Lord of the Hunt. For centuries she rides, reaping wanderers’ souls. But the night she meets a fierce Saxon queen on a blood-soaked battlefield, everything shifts . . .
Queen Æthelburg of Wessex, a warrior betrayed by her husband's court after defeat, is now King Ine's only hope. The dead kings of Wessex are waking, and Ine must master his bloodline’s ancient magic if they are to survive.
When their paths cross, Herla knows it’s no coincidence. Something dark and dangerous is at work in the Wessex court. As she and Æthel grow closer and battle looms, Herla must find a way to break the curse – before it’s too late.
‘A beguiling blend of Dark Ages history, strong heroines and magic . . . Captivating’ – Daily Mail
