When the Romans invade Britain, the Celtic tribes are fragmented and the old magic has long been forgotten. Fedlimid, the daughter of a Cornovii chieftain, is the victim of an inter-tribe dispute but is saved by Druistan, a swineherd from another tribe.
As the Romans march westwards, Fedlimid and Druistan are forced to deal with kidnapping, death and betrayal.
As the Romans march westwards, Fedlimid and Druistan are forced to deal with kidnapping, death and betrayal.
Growing up in strange lands, away from home, they discover untapped sources of bravery and strength and something even older.
But will bravery be enough when the final battle comes? Stone and Water will sit on your shelf alongside the great historical writers of our childhoods - Roger Lancelyn Green, Rosemary Sutcliff, Henry Treece. James Marshall takes us through a magical gateway to experience everyday life in late Iron Age Britain as the first raiding parties of the Roman Empire reach the Southern tribal domains. You will smell the bonfires and roasting meat, feel the soaking rains of Exmoor, taste the fear as a Roman contingent slashes its way through your dun. A book for young and old alike that will leave you wanting more.
Mandi Abrahams, Castle Books. Stone and Water is a richly imagined history set in Celtic Britain during the Roman invasion. The novel follows two young protagonists: Fedlimid, the headstrong daughter of a clan King, and Druistan, the unassuming son of pig farmers in a distant village. Fedlimid is used to getting her own way, but in the rapidly changing political climate she realizes she still has a lot to learn...especially when she discovers she might have magical powers she doesn't fully understand. Druistan is accustomed to his quiet life on the pig farm, but once Roman soldiers invade his village, nothing will ever be the same. He soon begins his own training to become a soldier, unaware that enemies can become allies and allies might not be what they seem. Stone and Water is a gripping tale of courage, loyalty, loss, betrayal, and revenge that will captivate readers of any age. Leslie Wells
