Información de la editorial

In this spellbinding historical novel in the tradition of Marion Zimmer Bradley's Avalon series, the Normans have conquered England and a spirited young Saxon woman must struggle to decide where her loyalty -- and her love -- lies

The year is 1086, twenty years after the conquest, and the new Norman lords are squeezing their Saxon subjects mercilessly. To survive, the townspeople of Enmore Green band together under the wise leadership of kindly Father Edmund and Sirona, the local seeress with potent powers who is teaching the healing arts to her foster daughter, Aldyth. Beautiful and sensitive, but feisty, Aldyth has decided not to marry but instead to dedicate her life to serving the Goddess of the Crystal Spring.

In The Keeper of the Crystal Spring, Naomi and Deborah Baltuck display masterful storytelling, spinning a rich and splendid tapestry of love, heroics, sly Saxon wit, and the ever present comfort of the Goddess that will be sure to enchant the many fans of Marion Zimmer Bradley's and Mary Stewart's books.
