Since ancient times and across realms the clash of swords and clatter of shields punctuate pursuits of love. A part of Flame Tree's thrilling new series of Romantic Fantasy titles, Of Swords & Roses features tales of chivalry and court intrigue; quests of passion and honour; wars waged for the sake of a beloved's hand; and great sacrifices made in the name of love. Such endeavours may play out as open clashes on the battlefield, or as guileful strategy woven into court rivalries. With a flavour of the fantastical, tales are twined with magic or abound with whimsical creatures, spanning kingdoms or bridging worlds. A chivalric hero may clash with their enemy to win another's affections; or perhaps that enemy proves to have been The One all along?
