Publisher Description
Thirteenth-century Wales is a divided country, ever at the mercy of England's ruthless, power-hungry King John. Llewelyn, Prince of North Wales, secures an uneasy truce by marrying the English king's beloved illegitimate daughter, Joanna, who slowly grows to love her charismatic and courageous husband. But as John's attentions turn again and again to subduing Wales---and Llewelyn---Joanna must decide where her love and loyalties truly lie.
The turbulent clashes of two disparate worlds and the destinies of the individuals caught between them spring to life in this magnificent novel of power and passion, loyalty and lies. The book that began the trilogy that includes Falls the Shadow and The Reckoning, Here Be Dragons brings thirteenth-century England, France, and Wales to tangled, tempestuous life.

Fascinating Book
This well written book was one I’ll remember. The characters so well defined, that it seemed that they came to life. One of the most interesting books I’ve read in a long while.
Here be Dragons
Great book. I really enjoy that SKP incorporates as much factual history as her in depth research reveals. SKP has become my favourite historical fact and fiction author.
