Synopsis

Following the overthrow of the Festillic dynasty, Camber MacRorie finds that peace has come at a terrible cost. Forced to conceal his true identity after assuming the role of the saintly Cullen, Camber must navigate political unrest, religious upheaval, and dangerous secrets that threaten the fragile Haldane kingdom. As enemies close in, the greatest Deryni hero in history must sacrifice everything to preserve the future of Gwynedd.

It is widely considered one of the strongest entries in the entire Deryni saga.

Collector Notes

Originally published in 1978, Saint Camber is the second volume of the Legends of Camber of Culdi trilogy. Early Del Rey/Ballantine paperbacks featuring the classic decorative border artwork are increasingly sought after by collectors, particularly when paired with matching editions of Camber of Culdi and Camber the Heretic.
