Juliet Marillier2007

Juliet Marillier concludes the epic fantasy begun with The Dark Mirror, which Interzone called “A fascinating evocation of life in Pictish England and an emotional roller coaster of a story,” with The Well of Shades: Book Three of The Bridei Chronicles.

King Bridei is a man with a mission. His wish to unite his kingdom seems almost within his grasp but there are forces working to undo his dream. He sends Faolan—trusted advisor, assassin and spymaster—out into the world to uncover the truth. Who is friend and who is foe?

Along the way Faolan will uncover many truths. Some may hold the key to Bridei’s future. Some may unlock the secrets Faolan has held deep inside him for long years.

And offer him the chance of redemption.
