the sons of prophecy
By tabitha tennant
England, 1456. The country is teetering on the edge of civil war. With King Henry VI slipping deeper into illness, Richard of York is lurking in the shadows ready to seize power. Neutrality is not an option. All must choose a side.
As kinsman to the King, Jasper Tudor’s allegiance is firmly with Lancaster. But then his brother dies in suspicious circumstances and everything changes. As he races to Wales to rescue his pregnant sister-in-law, the Wheel of Fortune is beginning to spin. If the Tudor name is to survive the impending bloodshed, Jasper must put his own interests aside and be prepared to risk everything in service of his family.
Named for the messianic figure in Welsh legend, The Sons of Prophecy follows Jasper across three decades as he fights to ensure his nephew’s survival. Against a backdrop of violence and betrayals, it tells a story of the bonds that bind families together and reveals how a boy, born into obscurity, emerged from the chaos to found one of the greatest dynasties history has ever known.
