Morgan Llywelyn

Glendower Morgan Llywelyn

From the author of the massive, international bestseller The Lion of Ireland, Morgan Llywelyn returns to her roots with Glendower: The Last Prince of Wales, an historical epic perfect for fans of Hilary Mantel and Maggie O'Farrell.

Glendower tells the epic tale of Owen Glendower, the last Welshman to hold the title Prince of Wales, and of his fifteenth century rebellion against the English crown.

The Welsh Marches between England and Wales are still under the tyrannical rule of the Norman barons who conquered them and who consider the native Celtic inhabitants to be an inferior race. These Welsh subjects suffer the Normans' rule with grim fortitude, developing a deep hatred that will last for centuries. They are always looking for an opportunity to reclaim the country for themselves.
