THE PRINCES IN THE TOWER The power-hungry former Regents of the three Haldane princes were pleased. They controlled Gwynedd once more, now that Rhys Michael was king--malleable, wine-loving, and soft. Or so they thought... Unbeknownst to the Regents, Rhys Michael was coming into his birthright. With secret Deryni aid, he struggled to grasp the magic bequeathed to all anointed kings. And when Marek--heir to Gwynedd's last degenerate deposed Deryni despots--marched into Gwynedd at the head of an army, even the Regents had to admit that Rhys Michael must take to the field himself as king to repel the pretender. Rhys Michael saw his chance at last. He swore that the power of the throne--from now on and for all time to come--was to be held by Gwynedd's rightful king. For this, for his sons, and for his country, the king would risk all... FIRST PAPERBACK PUBLICATION From the Paperback edition.… (mais)

This is almost a 'historical' fiction book. As with the previous books, if you have ever looked at the lists of kings of Gwynedd from the previous books, you know which kings ruled, and for how long. Even so, the author makes the story of the earliest Haldane kings and their battles against the evil regents good reading. Even if you know how it is going to come out, its well worth reading about how it all happens. As with most of her books, you'll enjoy these if you like reading what feels like historical fiction, with Deryni magic thrown in. Unfortunately, this is almost the last of the Deryni books ever written, and it starts to feel a bit strained at times. (

A truly great series, but the original trilogy is still the best. (

The nagging drizzle of the night before had yielded to clearing skies at dawn, but a persistent overcast remained even at noontime on this chill day in early June of the Year of Our Lord 928, now seventh in the reign of Rhys Michael Alister Haldane, King of Gwynedd.
