After a year, she would come to his Court in Lutece, and choose a husband from the men he offers her. Averil must produce an heir - not only to Quitaine, but also to all of Lys; for she is the only daughter of the King's sister, and he has no wife or child of his own. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut Averil's heart is in the keeping of a powerful young Knight of the Rose, Gerient, a man she can never marry. The two share a bond of magecraft as well as love, for between them lies the power to raise the Wild Magic of the world, the only force that can defeat the King's quest to release the Serpent God of Chaos from his mystic prison. And when Averil learns that the King is building a fleet to attack the Ladies of the Isle, to destroy them as he destroyed the Orders of the Knights of the Rose in Lys, she rebels against her sworn duty, and flees to Gerient's side. Together they will raise their powers to protect both the Isle and the remnants of the Rose.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martins Press-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/04\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780765313294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 287\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.37h x 5.37w x 0.75d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/07\/2008 pg. 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2008 pg. 18\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2008 pg. 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVoice of Youth Advocates\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2008 pg. 58 - Recommended - Better Than Most\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kathleen Bryan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":38210885910709,"sku":"9780765313294","price":14.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_b083dde9-f3ef-4ce7-bb4a-4f02a3d9f1bb.jpg?v=1610427386","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-golden-rose-9780765313294","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
