The warrior's daughter

Bennett, Holly 1957- (Author).

Summary: After the death of her parents, Luaine, daughter of the warrior Cuchulainn, is forced first into a loveless marriage with aged King Conchobar, and then into hiding after being cursed by jealous poets. In her young life, Luaine faces war and the first hints that her father may not have been invincible--and those are only the first few hardships endured by young Luaine. Her life isn't always bad, though. She is looked after by the powerful druid Cathbad, and given care of his raven, Fintin, who is always a friend to Luaine, but may turn out to be even more than he seems. Luaine is forced to grow up much too quickly, but she does it well, remaining strong and (eventually) true to herself.
