“Apollo’s Raven” is the first installment in Linnea Tanner’s series, “Curse of Clansmen and Kings.” Drawing from the rich tapestry of Celtic and Roman history, the novel is a blend of myth, magic, and dark political intrigue. A complex yet captivating heroine, Catrin, is at the heart of the tale. Portrayed with a prescient connection to her spiritual roots and an unnerving ability to foretell future events, the spirited Celtic princess’ destiny is intertwined with that of the Roman Empire, bound by a curse that transcends the realm of mortals. The impetuous Marcellus, the great-grandson of Mark Antony, is on a dangerous diplomatic mission with his father to negotiate an uneasy peace with the Celtic tribes on behalf of Rome. His path fatefully crosses with Catrin’s, setting the stage for a tale of forbidden love, political maneuvering, and kingdom-threatening curses that echo across time.
In 24 AD British kings hand-picked by Rome to rule are fighting each other for power. King Amren’s former queen, a powerful Druid, has cast a curse that Blood Wolf and the Raven will rise and destroy him. The king’s daughter, Catrin, learns to her dismay that she is the Raven and her banished half-brother is Blood Wolf. Trained as a warrior, Catrin must find a way to break the curse, but she is torn between her forbidden love for her father’s enemy, Marcellus, and her loyalty to the people. She must summon the magic of the Ancient Druids to alter the dark prophecy that threatens the fates of everyone in her kingdom.
Will Catrin overcome and eradicate the ancient curse? Will she be able to embrace her forbidden love for Marcellus? Will she cease the war between Blood Wolf and King Amren and save her kingdom?
