The Royal Griffin

Summary

As the younger sister of Henry III, Eleanor's duty is to her brother, her king, her country.

Her marriage is in her brother's gift to give, but in Simon de Montfort she meets a man of passion and charisma; a man for whom she is willing to defy convention; a man who harbors great ambition.

When de Montfort rallies an army of peasants and barons who object to the king's absolute power, Eleanor finds herself torn between love and loyalty . . .

The Royal Griffin is the second in Juliet Dymoke's remarkable Plantagenet series: an epic chronicle of love, heroism, and loyalty which brings to life one of the richest periods in English history: a time of power struggles, revolts, and betrayals.
