Publisher's Summary

Water Borne: Book 10 of the Circle of Ceridwen Saga.

It is water Dwynwen lifted in her cup of silver. Water, too, the Lady Luned uses in her scrying bowl. And it is over water one must travel to resolve an old conflict.

Set high upon its seaside cliff, the hall of Kilton is racked by inner turmoil. Ceric, on the margin of sanity, finds strength and even bliss returning to him. But it is not without price, as his young brother Edwin, Lord of Kilton, grasps for a possession he never fully won.

Hrald is called to Witanceaster by King Ælfred himself, and there awarded a rare prize. A chance meeting in the King's hall proves more fateful than the young Jarl of Four Stones could have ever imagined—and the one challenge he cannot overcome.

The King's bailiff, Raedwulf, brings Lady Ælfwyn to his hall in Defenas, where a new life awaits. With them travels her small grandson, Cerd, and her youngest daughter, Ealhswith. Now of marriageable age, Ealhswith yearns for confidence and direction in her life.

On Gotland, the peace and security of Tyrsborg is fractured as Sidroc and Ceridwen are abruptly forced to confront their past actions

Unexpected alliances and daring risks...all are Water Borne.

Circle of Ceridwen

This saga has completely enthralled me, everything about it draws the listener right into the story where you feel all that is happening. Nano Nagle adds to this with her beautiful voice and expressive reading. A wonderful saga, cannot wait for book 12.

Another fine edition to the Circle of Ceridwen Saga

With each book the reader is drawn deeper into the life and culture of Anglo Saxon, and Britain under the Dane law in the late ninth century. Randolph’s characters again are well rounded and ‘real’, experiencing the joys and sorrows, aspirations, honour and failings which beset us all.
We experience the path of adventure and angst, decisions good and questionable, temptation and redemption through which our favourite characters journey.
