As the daughter and only child of Queen Morveren and King Brenin, young Addien leads a life of luxury and security. But when all that is torn from her, she must learn to survive by relying on her own courage and strength of character. In doing so, she also learns about trusting others and holding on to her faith.

Set in the Dark Ages of British history, the story moves from a sophisticated Roman-built city, to a ring of standing stones on a wild moor, to an ancient Celtic stronghold, each based on actual historical sites. In this land of contrast merged the passion of the Celts, the intelligence of the Romans, and the influence of the early Christian church. This is where faith and fantasy meet, where good and evil are not always clearly defined, and it is not always possible to know the right thing to do.

Although primarily an author of Christian non-fiction, Janet Ruth got her start in writing when she published a novel about an orphaned princess in the 5th century Celtic kingdom of Dumnonia. (Yes, that was a real place!) Janet used her knowledge of fiction writing to help create her book about Christian worldviews which will be released later in 2021.
