Queen of Oak: A Novel of Boudica, Now Available For Pre-Order

 

When searching through time for inspiration, there is no shortage of inspiring women to explore. Boudica, the ancient warrior queen of Celtic Britain, is the heroine of my next novel. Book 1 in the Celtic Rebels series, my new series will follow the life of Boudica and her daughters, as well as a few interesting side characters. What's been really fun about writing Boudica's story is starting at the beginning. The youth and story of the infamous warrior queen who set Londinium on fire, scorching the earth itself, is one lost to history. Who was she? Did she have a family? What was her personality like? We know she was bold, fierce, and brave. But how did she become like that? What was her start? Not everyone comes out of the womb with the potential to take on an empire. The first novel in this series addresses her formative years, showing us Celtic Britain before the Claudian invasion of Rome, and setting the stage for the occupation and tragedy to come.

You can pre-order book 1, Queen of Oak, on Amazon. The novel will release this fall.

About the book:

Fated to lead a rebellion against Rome.

Destined to become a legend.

From New York Times bestseller Melanie Karsak, author of the Celtic Blood series, comes a gripping historical fantasy series of ancient Britain, Celtic gods, a fated romance, and the warrior queen who defied Rome.

Britain, A.D. 42—Boudica, second daughter of a Celtic king, has little concern for tribal tensions and political intrigues. Called by the gods and the stirrings of her own wild heart, she listens instead to whispers of the oaks. But Boudica would be wiser to heed the warning cries of eagles.

Rumors abound that the Romans are amassing forces for another invasion. In an effort to consolidate power, Boudica’s father turns to Prasutagus, the formidable ruler of the Greater Iceni. To win Prasutagus’s aid, Boudica’s father must strike a bargain—a deal with implications beyond Boudica’s imagining.

Rejecting her family’s will and a prophecy decreeing she is destined to be the defender of her people, Boudica gives her heart to a stranger under the light of the Beltaine fires. But Boudica will soon discover she has a destiny to fulfill, even if it means giving up everything she loves.
