About This Item
London: Bantam Press, [2003]., 2003. First edition. First edition. Signed by the author. Fine in dust jacket. First book in the tetralogy that features Boudica, war leader of the Eceni, in AD 60 who led her people against the occupying armies of Rome. The world of tribal Britain in the years before the Roman invasion: "a world of druids and dreamers and the magic of the gods; where horses and hounds and the landscape itself become characters in their own right; where warriors fight for honour as much as victory." A splendid debut.
Synopsis
Manda Scott is a veterinary surgeon, writer, and climber, not necessarily in that order. Born and educated in Scotland, she now lives in Suffolk with two lurchers and too many cats. Known originally as a crime writer, her first novel, Hen’s Teeth , was shortlisted for the Orange Prize. Her subsequent crime novels are Night Mares , Stronger than Death , and No Good Deed , which was nominated for an Edgar Award for Best Novel. Her two previous novels in the Boudica quartet, Dreaming the Eagle and Dreaming the Bull , are available in paperback from Dell, and she is currently at work on the fourth and final novel in the Boudica saga.
