Over 166 pages, Thirteen weaves a fascinating coming of age story around the Celtic legend of the thirteen treasures of Britain. Set in the early Iron Age fort of Caer Lludd (now Hampstead Heath) it chronicles the development of Rhiannon from gauche teenager to powerful warrior princess of the Catuvellauni tribe, through the tutelage of her mother, Druid Queen Rhiannon, and the majick of the Sacred Grove.
Thirteen" is a historical novel based in Caer Lludd (London) at the beginning of the Iron Age. It is based around the Celtic legend of the Thirteen Treasures of Britain. Queen Rhiannon of the Catuvellauni tribe and her estranged daughter separately have portentous dreams which tell them of the need to collect the treasures to save the tribe from war: in the first instance, the augury came too late to the nine-year-old Rhiannon the elder to be of use in the prevention of a battle, However, through the intervention of the Druid Dynedd, that first battle was won, but only just. The next battle, however - the battle which the younger Rhiannon is primed to fight, the one which makes the earlier skirmish, which itself nearly annihilated the tribe, look like a pillow fight with a lettuce - is a fight for which the Thirteen Treasures are of the essence.
