The Du Lac devil
The Du Lac Chronicles Book #2
by Mary Anne Yarde
War is coming...
As one kingdom after another falls to the savage might of the High King, Cerdic of Wessex, only one family dares to stand up to him — The Du Lacs.
Budic and Alden Du Lac are barely speaking to each other, and Merton is a mercenary, fighting for the highest bidder. If Wessex hears of the brothers’ discord, then all is lost.
Fate brings Merton du Lac back to the ancestral lands of his forefathers, and he finds his country on the brink of civil war. But there is worse to come, for his father’s old enemy has infiltrated the court of Benwick. Now, more than ever, the Du Lac must come together to save the kingdom and themselves.
Can old rivalries and resentments be overcome in time to stop a war?

Praise for The Du Lac Chronicles:
"... a compelling story with a beautiful setting, a story that features an equally compelling conflict. The reader is introduced to the key characters in the very opening pages of the story and the conflict comes across as a great hook. The Du Lac Devil combines great writing with storytelling skills to keep the reader's eyes riveted on the pages."
~ Readers’ Favorite, 5* Review
"Yarde weaves an intoxicating tale blending history with folklore. ...
If you’re a fan of Game of Thrones and / or The Vikings, you’ll love the back-stabbing/political jockeying in The Du Lac Devil."
