"I am assigning a Guardian to ward you. His name is Roman. . .."
Thus begins Surchatain Karel's explanation to his daughter, ten-year-old Chataine Deirdre, as to why her life is about to change dramatically. Karel's small country, Lystra, possesses the only navigable river on the southern coast of the Continent. The provinces that surround Lystra want its river trade, and will do anything to gain it--even kill the heir to the throne. So Karel places her life in the keeping of the most capable and trustworthy soldier he can find.
Willful and spoiled, Deirdre sees this guradian only as another servant to be mastered. She teases and abuses him as he places his life on the line for her day after day, year after year. Deirdre does not know at what point she beings to love him. But Roman knows from the very beginning that to love her will mean his death.
The Annals of Lystra begin with Chataine's Guardian, continue in Stone of Help, and conclude in Liberation of Lystra. The Latter Annals of Lystra resume the saga 100 years later with Nicole of Prie Mer.
Robin Hardy is the author of The Latter Annals of Lystra, the Streiker Saga, the Sammy Series, Padre, His Strange Ways, Unknown Name, Unknown Number, and The Idecis. She is also the editor of W.W. Melton's classic devotional, Sifted But Saved. She resides with her family in North Texas.

I first read this book when I was in my teens and I fell in love with the story and then the whole series.I could spend hours detailing why you should read this book, but it all boils down to the epic story: forbidden (true) love, revenge, murder, adventure, redemption, forgiveness, heroes, princesses, castles, it's all here! Robin Hardy is a master storyteller- it's like she's painting this incredible picture in your mind. You will not be able to put this book down. You'll be swept away on a huge adventure. I've read this series at least 10 times and never get tired of it.
Deidre is appointed a guardian after there have been threats on her life (she is the only heir). She is appointed a guardian- a soldier to guard her, Roman. He will be flogged if she hurts herself and die if she dies. This story take place over several years as Deidre is growing up. And one then one day..."sigh" (so good!) and then the story continues in other books and they're amazing.

I have read this book at least 3 times, I love it! The storyline keeps you engaged from start to finish. You will not be disappointed.
I read this book when I was just 14. That was 23 years ago. I never reread books but I read this book every so often. The characters are real. The story is gripping and well written. I loved all the books in this series. I will never forget these books. They impacted my life so much. I named my daughter Ariel because I wanted a piece of this series to always be with me.
I bought this as a gift for my mother, who had read it years ago, and lost her copy. She was so glad to get another!
This was the book that introduced me to Robin Hardy during college in the 80s, and I have read it at least ten times since then. I've also purchased every work of fiction she's written. Just an amazing story, that will make you want to read the whole series.
Almost 5 years ago, I picked up Chataine's Guardian. It was one of many books a friend had given me to sell at a yard sale I was having. I loved books, and it looked interesting, so I read it, and sold the rest of the books she had given me. I couldn't put it down! I got the next two books, and read almost all the streiker series books. My cousin began reading them, and we were hooked! Robin's books have become very familiar to me, and every time I read them, I get so wrapped up in them!
Robin's books have encouraged my cousin and me to continue in our own writing endeavors, and remind us that it's God that gives us the ability to do so. Her books are more than just stories to me--they're revelations of her heart, and encouragements to all who read them.
In this beautifully written tale, Deirdre, daughter to the ruler of the country of Lystra, grows up under the care of a Christian soldier (Roman) who is appointed her guardian.
The relationship between the (at first) immature and headstrong Deirdre and the ever restrained Roman is tense from the beginning. We see their relationship grow - as Deirdre ages from a girl to a young woman and has to choose a husband (among a myriad of well-to-do suitors). All this happens in a story line where bits and pieces of family secrets, political and romantic intrigue and news of an impending war are uncovered.
We realize in the end that the book is told on several levels. It is a romance as it concerns Deirdre and Roman, but, written from a Christian perspective, it is also as much about the evolution of Roman's and Deirdre's relationship to their God.
Chataine's Guardian is a tale spun out of forbidden romance, mystery and an interesting rendering of the various forms of love - from infatuation and romantic love to paternal love to God's love.
Though I am no longer at the age for which the book is likely targeted, I am delighted to have found Robin Hardy's book and only wished I had discovered it earlier.
I absolutely loved this book when I was much younger, and had to get rid of it (and about 500 other books) when I moved out of state for college. Since graduating, I have searched everywhere for this book. I could not remember who wrote it, or the title of the book. I only remembered one of the main character's name was Roman. I happened upon it while searching through hundreds of books on , and did a happy dance in front of my computer. I read it in one day and loved it more than I had when I was younger. Excellent story with some great twists, good morals, well-written, and just a fun, imaginative story. I am so happy to have found this book!
