The Valiant

<b>Princess. Captive. Gladiator. Always a Warrior. </b><br> <i> </i><br> Fallon is the daughter of a proud Celtic king and the younger sister of the legendary fighter Sorcha. When Fallon was just a child, Sorcha was killed by the armies of Julius Caesar. <br>  <br> On the eve of her seventeenth birthday, Fallon is excited to follow in her sister's footsteps and earn her place in her father's war band. She never gets the chance.<br>  <br> Fallon is captured and sold to an elite training school for female gladiators—owned by none other than Julius Caesar himself. In a cruel twist of fate, the man who destroyed Fallon’s family might be her only hope of survival. <br>  <br> Now, Fallon must overcome vicious rivalries, deadly fights in and out of the arena, and perhaps the most dangerous threat of all: her irresistible feelings for Cai, a young Roman soldier and her sworn enemy.   <br>  <br> A richly imagined fantasy for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Cinda Williams Chima, <i>The Valiant</i> recounts Fallon’s gripping journey from fierce Celtic princess to legendary gladiator and darling of the Roman empire.
