Katherine Kurtz
Katherine Kurtz (Katherine Irene Kurtz) is an American fantasy author. She was born 1944. She is best known for the Deryni novels.
Bishop Edmund Loris was aware that many would regard what he was about
to do as treason. He did not. As bishop and priest, he was duty-bound
to root out evil and corruption. And the source of corruption lay in the
devil's brood called the Deryni.
They must be eradicated - every last one of them. And though Loris' mind
recoiled at the thought of raising hand against an anointed king -
Kelson, whom he himself had crowned - the thought of not acting against
a servant of Darkness on the throne repelled him more.
For the sake of every soul in Gwynedd, the Deryni heresy must be
stamped out - and Edmund Loris would use whatever means necessary to
accomplish that end.
