A medieval kingdom is thrown into chaos by rumors of the death of its liege in the final volume of the Histories of King Kelson King Kelson Haldane of Gwnyedd knows he owes much to the legendary Camber of Culdi, the most revered of the magical Deryni race. Having suppressed the rebellion that threatened to tear his realm to pieces, Kelson, himself a possessor of Deryni magic, is now dedicated to exploring the history and legacy of the man who returned the Haldane line to the throne two centuries before. But word reaches the royal court that, while on their noble quest to help restore Camber to the sainthood he was stripped of by a virulently anti-Deryni church, King Kelson and his blood brother, Dhugal, have perished. Now, for the lost king's ambitious rival a pathway exists to the throne--and to the bedchamber of Rothana, Kelson's intended queen. But there is more to the king's "accidental demise" than initially meets the eye, and a powerful unseen player in this drama that no one could have ever suspected. Katherine Kurtz brilliantly concludes her acclaimed fantasy trilogy of the reign of King Kelson with The Quest for Saint Camber--ending but one remarkable chapter in her breathtaking history of the Deryni in the Middle Ages of a magnificently imagined and brilliantly constructed alternate Britain.  … (meer)

right prevails, but once again, Kelson is thwarted in love. His first bride dies, his second intended marries his cousin cause everyone thinks he’s dead. Kelson just can’t win. Wish the series continued. ( )

This is the conclusion to the 2nd Kelson trilogy. A good part of the political drama of the previous books is wrapped up now, and replaced by Kelson's personal quest to find the resting place of Saint Camber - or perhaps the saint himself. Unfortunately, this book gives the definite impression that there will be more Kelson books to come, but to my knowlege, none were ever written. ( )

A truly great series, but the original trilogy is still the best. ( )

Honestly, I'm quite disappointed in this second trilogy. The first two books are extremely lackluster compared to the first trilogy. The third book is not only lackluster, but has a total bummer of an ending that didn't even feel in keeping with the characters Kurtz established. It's almost as if she decided to tell the story of Job instead of Kelson. ( )

Thunder rumbled not far away, low and ominous, as Prince Conall Haldane, first cousin to King Kelson of Gwynedd, pulled up with his squire in the meager shelter of a winter-bare tree and huddled deeper into his oiled leather cloak, squinting against the spatter of increasingly large raindrops.
