To Kill a King
W. L. Hawkin, Yasaman Mohandesi
The plot of "To Kill a King" centers on archaeologist Sorcha O'Hallorhan, who finds herself in Iron Age Ireland and falls deeply in love with a man named Ruair. However, she discovers Ruair is fated to be ritually murdered and cast into a bog. Sorcha's desire to save him leads to her own peril, as she is perceived as 'fey' and becomes a target for those who seek her perceived power, as well as Ruair's jealous lover, the Crow Queen. To rescue Sorcha, her friend Estrada, who possesses Wiccan abilities, embarks on a dangerous time-travel mission to Iron Age Ireland alongside Dylan. Estrada is bound by strict rules: he must not alter history or form attachments, a challenge given the life-or-death stakes and the prehistoric warrior culture Sorcha must navigate. The story is a thrilling blend of romance, historical fantasy, and suspense, as Estrada uses his unique skills to contend with ancient Druids and formidable adversaries to bring his friends back to their own time. This novel is compelling due to its high-concept premise of time travel combined with a passionate, anachronistic romance set against the harsh backdrop of ancient Ireland. The conflict between modern sensibilities and ancient brutality, coupled with the use of magic and the multifaceted threats Sorcha and Estrada face, creates a gripping narrative. The stakes are personal and epic, exploring themes of love, sacrifice, survival, and the consequences of tampering with the past.
