Merlin's Descendant's series - A Meeting of Minds

Blue Rider 16 · Jul 20 2008, 06:26 PM

Hey all, I was just wondering if anybody here as read the Merlin's Descendant's series by Irene Radford. For any who haven't it's a good fantasy series, all thought very descriptive, in, um, all the aspects of life. Pretty violent too, though it definitely makes you feel everything. Not for the squeamish! The premise is that the descendants of Merlin use magic and otherworldly knowledge to uphold the British Empire. One novel is set in Merlin's time, one in King John's time, two in Queen Elizabeth I's time and one during the American Revoloution. Anyway, it's fascinating, and Irene Radford, can get you very involved in her novels, writing extreme emotion very well. Might want to check them out if you haven't already.

I've read the first Dragon Nimbus trilogy (The Glass Dragon, The Perfect Princess and The Loneliest Magician) but nothing else by her. Those were good.

What are the titles of these books?
