About this ebook
Years before, the peaceful world of Umbria was torn apart by the ruthless Hanish invaders
Yet that is the only life Maura knows. Until her wizard guardian announces she is to be queenbut that first she must find and unite wit their country's legendary "Waiting King" in order to overthrow the enemy occupation. Men have searched for the fabled warrior for ageswhat chance has a young witch gifted in life-magic? Especially since she has only till midsummer's moon and her guardian's wisdom is tragically taken from her .
Filled with fear and determination as well as wits and magic, Maura sets forth. Her only ally is the outlaw Rath. Having Rath as a companion is as dangerous as having an enemy alongbut she must trust in him to save their country. As midsummer approaches, their mission is in jeopardy from the Han outlaws and treasure huntersand even their own folk, who are wary of "the witch and the wolf."
But the greatest complication is the knowledge that if they do not find the king, Maura need not sacrifice all to be queen .

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved this book; the ending is great.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The plot was pretty much telegraphed in the first few pages. Young Woman is the hidden queen, old geezer who is her guardian is killed by the nasty wizard from the opressing race, rogue with heart-of-gold is convinced to help her search for the hidden king.
