Cecilia Holland by up for grabs! The King's Witch hits bookstores today!ABOUT THE BOOK
SYNOPSIS
Of the women in King Richard's life, she is the least known-and the most powerful.
During the Third Crusade, deaths from fever and starvation are common, but King Richard the Lion-Hearted has a secret ally against these impassable enemies-a mysterious healer by the name of Edythe.
She was sent to him by his mother Eleanor, and Richard first assumes that Edythe is a spy. But when her medical knowledge saves his life, she becomes an indispensable member of his camp-even as his loyal soldiers, suspicious of her talent for warding off death, call her a witch.
For more information please visit Cecilia Holland's WEBSITE.

For many of us, it's hard to grasp that medicine was once looked upon as witchcraft. This novel sounds very good and I will certainly add it to my To Be Read list. Thanks for sharing the review.

It must have been so difficult for someone with the talent to heal. Life and death are so closely linked that the ability to save a life led to the fear that the person could in turn take one. To be branded a witch was so often a death sentence. It will be interesting to see how this author handles this in the book.
ReplyDeleteNice cover.
