The Bee Keepers Daughter
Bee Keeper’s Daughter is the first book in The Kingdom of Meridian series. The author, Shiån Serei, originally planned only a few chapters to introduce and transport the main character, Maria, from her Russian homeland to Meridian where the dominant portion of the series takes place. However, during the layout, Shiån saw a chance to illustrate the colorful history, traditions, and language of the Russian people as a backdrop for Maria’s story. The result became the first volume in the series.
The story begins with Maria, a young woman struggling to survive in medieval Russia. Through a series of tragic events, she must travel the Volga river across Northwestern Russia to find safety with relatives in a distant city. Along the way she is exposed to a dangerous, unforgiving world, far beyond the conservative village she had always known. Her experience becomes a personal journey in trust, adventure, love and destiny.
The King's Bodyguard
The sequel to the Bee Keepers Daughter, author Shiån Serei continues the adventure of Maria's adventurous story. The journey to England continues, revealing a romantic interest from the captain, but he is poisoned and is off boarded. The new captain betrays Maria’s agreement and sells her into slavery in England, where she is purchased by a tavern owner intent on exploiting her beauty for profit. The fate of Maria, her mother and those she has trusted spins into an adventurous timeline, driving her toward an unknown destiny of danger and romance in the Kingdom of Meridian.
