Deryni Rising
Cover Blurb
Katherine Kurtz
HIGH MAGIC - AND LOW
A sweeping tale of romance and sorcery in the imaginary kingdom of Gwynedd - where the mysterious forces of magic and the superior power of the Church combine to challenge the rule of young Kelson, who came to the throne when his father was brutally murdered by the sorceress Charissa.
The fate of the Seryni - a quasi-mortal race of sorcerers - and, indeed, the fate of the Eleven Kingdoms rests on Kelson's ability to quash the rebellion by fair means of foul... even by the proscribed use of magic!

Deryni Checkmate
Cover Blurb
Katherine Kurtz
"IT'S CLEAR THAT KATHERINE KURTZ IS A
GREAT NEW TALENT IN THE FIELD OF FANTASY.
THE BOOKS HAVE THE PROMISE OF
TOLKIEN OR EDDISON..."
- Bestsellers
The number of the Deryni was small, very small - for they had been hounded for generations, their very identity kept secret for so long that many who were of Deryni blood did not know it. Those who did, those few who had managed to retain their arcane powers, concealed their background - for bitter persecution once again swept the land of Gwynedd, inspired by a raving fanatic sworn to destroy all Deryni in a final bloodbath.

High Deryni

Katherine Kurtz
"IT'S CLEAR THAT KATHERINE KURTZ IS A
GREAT NEW TALENT IN THE FIELD OF FANTASY.
THE BOOKS HAVE THE PROMISE OF
TOLKIEN OR EDDISON..."
- Bestsellers
With young King Kelson on the hrone of Gwynedd, the priesthood of the Eleven Kingdoms feels its control deeply threatened, for Kelson is half-Deryni - part of the race of humans gifted with extrasensory powers, a race that ruled two centuries earlier, but was dethroned and driven underground. So, the battle for final power is about to break into open conflict, led by the Church which equates the supernatural powers of the Deryni with witchcraft and heresy!
