The Forest House by Marion Zimmer Bradley is a historical fantasy set in Britain before the legendary Isle of Avalon became shrouded in myth. In a hidden sanctuary deep within the forest, Druidic priestesses safeguard sacred rites of healing, prophecy, and worship as the Roman Empire advances.

The story follows Eilan, a young woman born to a Druidic family, destined to become High Priestess. Her path is complicated by a forbidden love for the Roman officer Gaius Macellius, whose duty is to conquer her homeland. Torn between love and sacred duty, Eilan must make a life-altering choice.

Within the Forest House, allies and enemies surround her — from the bitter priestess Dieda, bound to Eilan by an unwanted pact, to the fiercely loyal Caillean, who protects her at great personal cost. But the most dangerous figure is Arch-Druid Ardanos, both ally and ruthless adversary, who could destroy the sanctuary if he learns Eilan’s deepest secret.

As Rome’s legions draw nearer, Eilan must draw upon the power of the Great Goddess to survive a time of war, political intrigue, and spiritual awakening. Rich in myth, mystery, and Druidic tradition, this novel is a sweeping tale of love, sacrifice, and destiny.
