For the Good of the Realm
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Aqueduct Press
Description:
Anna dGart is both skilled with the sword and shrewd (not to mention discreet), a rare combination among the hot-tempered and rowdy Guards serving the King, Queen, and Hierofante, which is why shes always the Queens first choice for carrying out sensitive assignments. Discovering that someone powerful is using magic to damage the Queen, Anna is plunged into political intrigue and a series of tough decisions. No fan of the uncanny, shes forced to enlist the assistance of a witch -- whose magical practices are strictly prohibited in the Realm and condemned by the Church. With the aid of her flirtatious friend and fellow Guardswoman Asamir and their friends Roland de Barthes and Jean-Paul of the Kings Guard, Anna repeatedly matches wits with an opponent too powerful to be named. Intent on preventing war, preserving the Realm, and protecting the Queen despite the risks to herself and her fears about the ancient way of magic, Anna deploys all the means at her disposal -- espionage, diplomacy, her sword, a powerful witch, and, of course, indomitable bravery.
