More than two centuries after Saint Camber’s death, the Kingdom of Gwynedd faces one of its darkest hours. King Kelson’s distant descendants rule a realm torn apart by civil war, religious fanaticism, and persecution of the magical Deryni people. As enemies close in on every side, a handful of loyal nobles and Deryni struggle to preserve both the kingdom and their ancient heritage before everything Camber fought to build is destroyed.
EugeneBookStore Summary
The Harrowing of Gwynedd opens Katherine Kurtz’s Heirs of Saint Camber trilogy, returning readers to the richly detailed world that made the Deryni novels fantasy classics. Combining realistic medieval politics, religious conflict, and subtle magic, Kurtz delivers one of the darkest and most emotionally powerful stories in the entire Deryni saga. Longtime fans will appreciate how the novel bridges the gap between the Camber era and the events of the original Deryni Chronicles.
Collector Notes
Published in 1989, The Harrowing of Gwynedd is the first volume of The Heirs of Saint Camber trilogy. It occupies an important place in the overall Deryni chronology, depicting the collapse of Deryni influence that eventually leads into the original Chronicles. Early Del Rey printings remain popular with collectors seeking complete Deryni sets, particularly when accompanied by the remaining two volumes of the trilogy.
