Shadow Weaver: A Celtic Tale

By Ray Cattie

In a kingdom torn between ancient tradition and the dawn of a new age, young King Arthur Pendragon seeks to forge a unified Britannia-not through conquest alone, but through roads, irrigation, justice, and reform. Yet as he battles to lift his people from starvation and decay, shadowy forces within his own court conspire against him.

Whispers of the Serpent echo through the halls of Caerleon. Lords cling to their old privileges, Northmen raiders mass on the horizon under alchemical fire, and a forgotten blood debt awakens the Shadow Weaver-an ancient sorceress whose web of betrayal threatens to unmake the realm itself. Loyalties fracture. Old oaths surface. And even Arthur's closest knights carry secrets that could doom the kingdom.

With his fierce Queen Gwenhwyfar at his side and the enigmatic wizard Myrddin offering cryptic guidance, Arthur must choose between the builder's hammer and the warrior's sword. As fires rage, rituals awaken, and the very ley lines of the land tremble, one truth becomes clear: to save Caerleon, Arthur may have to sacrifice everything he holds dear-including the brother of his heart.

A gripping reimagining of Arthurian legend rich with political intrigue, mythic magic, and hard-won redemption, Shadow Weaver weaves a tale of leadership, loyalty, and the heavy cost of progress in a world where shadows never truly die.

Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell's Warlord Chronicles, Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Mists of Avalon, and of course the Celtic Tales series by Ray Cattie.
