Here Be Dragons

Thirteenth-century Wales is a divided country, ever at the mercy of England's ruthless, power-hungry King John. Llewelyn, Prince of North Wales, secures an uneasy truce by marrying the English king's beloved illegitimate daughter, Joanna, who slowly grows to love her charismatic and courageous husband. But as John's attentions turn again and again to subduing Wales, -and Llewelyn, -Joanna must decide where her love and loyalties truly lie.

The book that began the trilogy that includes Falls the Shadow and The Reckoning, Here Be Dragons brings thirteenth-century England, France, and Wales to tangled, tempestuous life.
At last, the long unavailable first book in Penman's Middle Ages series that includes The Reckoning and Falls the Shadow. Joanna, the daughter of England's King John, marries Welsh Prince Llewelyn--and is forced to choose which of these powerful men she owes her loyalty and love.
