Enter the intricately crafted universe of the Deryni in The Legends of Camber of Culdi series by Katherine Kurtz.
This three-book series, published by Del Rey Books, tells the epic tale of Camber, a legendary figure whose arcane powers, political maneuvering, and moral struggles shape the fate of his kingdom. Combining historical fantasy with courtly intrigue, this classic series is a must-have for collectors and fans of medieval-inspired fantasy.
