War is coming to Saxon Briton...

A generation after Arthur Pendragon ruled, Briton lies fragmented into warring kingdoms and principalities.

The Saxon King, Cerdic of Wessex, is determined to purge the land of Arthur's Knights but, to do so, he has to destroy the sons of Arthur's greatest enemy. But the sons of Lancelot du Lac do not die easily. It will be no easy win for Cerdic.

Unbeknown to the world the du Lac brothers are divided. Now, more than ever, they must come together to save the kingdom and themselves.

“Mary Yarde has woven a compelling story with a beautiful setting, a story that features an equally compelling conflict…” 

Christian Sia, Readers' Favorite

“The Du Lac Chronicles has rivalry and treachery enough for any ‘Game of Thrones’ aficionado…”

Tony Riches, author of The Tudor Trilogy

“If you are a fan of Game Of Thrones and/or The Vikings, you’ll love the backstabbing/political jockeying in The Du Lac Devil…”

N.N.Light, Top Reviewer on Goodreads

“Man this could be a TV series and I would totally watch it!”

Elisabeth Cole, Netgalley Professions Reader

#FolkloreThursday ~ The Cloak of Invisibility #Arthurian #myths #legends

I guess nowadays when we think of The Cloak of Invisibility we automatically think of Harry Potter. But did you know J.K. Rowling borrowed the idea from Folklore?

The Cloak of Invisibility is very common in German and Welsh mythology. I am going to stay with Wales for today's post because in the Welsh stories, the Cloak of Invisibility is owned by King Arthur.

Forget Excalibur, King Arthur's Mantle of Invisibility was one of his most prized possessions. There was no way Arthur was going to part with it. Harry Potter was of the same mind — he dropped the Resurrection Stone, broke the Elder Wand, but he kept the Invisibility Cloak!

The story of Arthur and his Mantle of Invisibility can be found in the Welsh story of Culhwch and Olwen c.1100. This cloak made the man wearing it invisible, although whoever was under the cloak could still see through the magic material. In this story, Arthur helps Culhwch complete his quest. Arthur gives Culhwch many things, but he will NOT part with his cloak!

Culhwch at Ysbadadden's court ~ Wikipedia

In The Dream of Rhonabwy (early 13th Century) the cloak is once again mentioned. This time the cloak goes by the name of Gwenn and it shrouds those who sit on it with invisibility!

The Cloak of Invisibility is one of the Thirteen Treasures of the Island of Briton. This treasure is hidden somewhere on Bardsey Island, Gwynedd, North Wales. But don't go getting your spades and metal detectors ready because Merlin is the guardian of the treasures and he takes that role very seriously!

The Du Lac Princess

(Book 3 of The Du Lac Chronicles)

By Mary Anne Yarde

The multi award-winning series, The Du Lac Chronicles, continues…

War is coming…

The ink has dried on Amandine’s death warrant. Her crime? She is a du Lac.

All that stands in the way of a grisly death on a pyre is the King of Brittany. However, King Philippe is a fickle friend, and if her death is profitable to him, then she has no doubt that he would light the pyre himself.

Alan, the only man Amandine trusts, has a secret and must make an impossible choice, which could have far-reaching consequences — not only for Amandine, but for the whole of Briton.
