YOU ALWAYS HURT THE ONE YOU LOVE A fortenyear has passed since a dragonling fought its way out of one of dark-age Cymry's most sought-after relics, the holy Creil. For the safety of all, Nyneve was raised in ignorance of her heritage by her adopted mother and their protector. But she cannot stay hidden forever, and every passing winter brings her closer to the dramatic Ascension of her kind. When a silver-haired traveller-in-song arrives in their isolated valley, noble-born Gwanaelle and past sword-arm Eifion are forced to confront the realities and mysteries of Nyneve's true heritage. Eifion sets off on a dangerous mission back to the world (and King) he'd betrayed, leaving the daughter he loves-and the woman he dares not-in the dubious care of the mysterious Bard. ASCENSION is the second novel in Gwendolyn Beynon's 'Y Ddraig - The Dragons of Brython' series set in dark-age, Arthurian Wales and continues the adventures begun in book 1, SACRIFICE.
Autorenporträt
Australian author, Gwendolyn Beynon, comes from a long line of storytellers of Welsh and Cornish stock. She grew up reading fantasy and romance but the 'y Ddraig' series is her first foray into writing fantasy and historical fiction. The idea for 'y Ddraig' came while on a pilgrimage to Wales where she was visiting holy wells and ancient yew trees. She grew captivated with the way that the ancient stories of Welsh literature, myth and history still co-exist comfortably in contemporary Cymru, and by the atmosphere of mystery that still exists around much of Wales' natural space. An Arts graduate from Curtin University (with double-majors in Film and Theatre Arts), Gwen has worked in communications all her life. She sold her first book in 2008 and has been writing for a living with her hounds at her feet and Celtic music as a backdrop ever since. www.yDdraig.com.au - gwen@yDdraig.com.au
