Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[An] engaging mix of history, legend, and romance." —Publisher's Weekly starred review On the path toward greatness, even a hero makes mistakes. Armed with his magical sword and otherworldly horse, Gwalchmai proves himself the most feared and faithful warrior of Arthur's noble followers. But while defending the kingdom, he commits a grave offense against the woman he loves, leading her to disappear from his life and haunt his memories. With his trusted servant, Rhys, a commonsense peasant, Gwalchmai tries to find her in the Kingdom of Summer, where Arthur has sent him. But an unexpected and most malevolent force of evil and darkness is loose—that of his mother, the witch-queen Morgawse—and Gwalchmai finds that the secrets of his past may deny him peace... In the second book of Gillian Bradshaw's critically acclaimed trilogy, Sir Gawain comes to life as Gwalchmai, startlingly human yet fantastically heroic. Praise for Gillian Bradshaw "Compelling...splendid...vibrant...exhilirating, a novel seduces us into accepting sorcery and sanctity in King Arthur's England."—New York Times Book Review "Courage, darkness, magic, cruelty and kindness, justice and liberation...all the things that you have come to relish in the tales of King Arthur and his brave knights." —Yankee Romance Reviewers "This engaging and enchanting retelling of the Arthur legend will appeal to adults and younger readers alike."—Publishers Weekly "A fast-paced Arthurian novel with broad appeal."—Historical Novels Review

Book Synopsis Rewriting the Women of Camelot by : Ann F. Howey
Download or read book Rewriting the Women of Camelot written by Ann F. Howey and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2001-02-28 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though firmly rooted in the Middle Ages, Arthurian legend has captivated readers since Caxton and Malory and continues to thrive today. By looking at contemporary reworkings of Arthuriana, this book explores the intersection of popular fiction and feminist discourses in Western society. It examines selected Arthurian novels and short stories by such women writers as Fay Sampson, Mary Stewart, Gillian Bradshaw, and Marion Zimmer Bradley to analyze the textual strategies that articulate feminist ideas. While these texts maintain continuity with established literary traditions through the replication of conventions, their reworking of women's roles encourages readers to engage liberal feminist ideology. The book first gives an overview of theories of popular fiction, feminism, and reading. It then surveys the medieval texts on which the Arthurian tradition is founded and which the contemporary texts rewrite. The chapters that follow discuss how popular contemporary women writers have reworked Arthurian legend through their narrative strategies and their representation of female character types, such as the royal woman and the magical woman.
Book Synopsis The Idylls of the Queen by : Phyllis Ann Karr
Download or read book The Idylls of the Queen written by Phyllis Ann Karr and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2013-08-26 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arrangements for the dinner party were overseen by Queen Quenevere herself. She selected the apples with her own hands. And before the evening ended, a young knight lay dead...and Arthur's beloved, unfaithful queen stood branded as a murderess and condemned to death! Phyllis Ann Karr has taken Celtic legend and given it a fresh new twist in this magical murder-mystery of knights and sorcery, romantic entanglements and courtly intrigues. This is a tale that explores the passions and motivations of the men and women who stride through the pages of Mallory's romance: Sir Kay, the sharp-tongued seneschal; Nimue, the elusive Lady of the Lake; Morgan le Fay, Merlin's complex nemesis; the tormented sons of Lot and Morgawse; and Mordred, Arthur's own bitter, terrified son! "In The Idylls of the Queen, Phyllis Ann Karr takes an incident (the murder of Sir Patrise) from Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur and creates an intelligent, complex, and fascinating mystery novel perfect for fans of historical mysteries, of British legends, and of fantasy." -- Cynthia Ward

Download or read book Hounded by Fate written by Mia West and published by Mia West. This book was released on 2021-06-16 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wolf on the run from his demons. The one man who can tame his wounded heart. None of it was Cai’s fault. Or so he’s told himself for years. Only, it no longer holds the scent of truth. With guilt nipping at his heels, Cai flees as far north as he can. By the time he stumbles into a barbarian hunting camp, he’s nothing but fur and bones and a death wish. It's just his luck that among the strangers are a small girl with strength to spare and a man whose sure hand sparks an unsettling instinct to obey. + Raised by a brutal despot, Agravain is determined to be a better father to his daughter. He has enough problems without adding this pathetic excuse for a wild wolf to his burdens. But he doesn’t count on his lass’s quick attachment to the beast, nor how helping the wolf mend eases the loneliness of their island home. And he can’t explain at all why the creature seems to understand him better than anyone else. + Meanwhile, a surprise visitor to Arthur’s shifter compound could corner him into finally accepting a few truths that have dogged him for over a decade. HOUNDED BY FATE is the 6th novel of the SONS OF BRITAIN series. Tropes: on the run, secret identity, alpha/omega, found family, redemption Content Notes: killing in defense of self and others, injury, intimacy in shifted forms, terminal illness (secondary character), suicidal thoughts, mention of murder, mention of infanticide by drowning, mention of past partner/parent death
Download or read book Tempted by Ruin written by Mia West and published by Mia West. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s hard to be a ruthless mercenary when the man who owns your heart won’t stop risking his neck. Gawain has earned his place in Arthur’s small gang of warriors with a bold agility that pays in their secret missions against the Saxons. Capturing the heart of a certain mercenary has been the hawk’s only failure. “Try again in seven years,” Palahmed said. As if Gawain had nothing better to do than mark the hours. He has plenty of things to do, and waiting for any man—even one as tall, dark, and miserable as Palahmed—isn’t one of them. Not that he’s above showing the sell-sword what he’s missing. + Six and a half years ago, Palahmed threw down the stupidest challenge of his life, and he’s regretted it every day since. He wasn’t wrong to do it; his history with younger men has been a disastrous journey, pierced through with guilt and shame. And Gawain is young—and cocksure and beautiful and entirely infuriating. Every time the hawk slips into enemy territory, Palahmed must shore up his inner defenses or lose his mind to worry. But every stronghold has a weak point. + When an unexpected mission threatens to set Gawain on a collision course with the brutal father he escaped, Palahmed can’t help but swear his sword to back him. Gawain must agree or appear a coward, even as Palahmed braces himself to get closer than ever to the one man who could bring his fortress crashing down. Amid the cold, harsh beauty of Britain’s far north, the two will have to face the truth unspoken between them, or neither will survive to tell the tale. + TEMPTED BY RUIN is the 4th novel of the SONS OF BRITAIN series. Tropes: age gap, brooding older hero, forced proximity Content Notes: violence (physical & verbal), animal cruelty (attempted drowning), an intimate situation involving an adolescent and an adult (witnessed by a main character), murder, attempted murder, and killing in self-defense.

Book excerpt: "Intelligent and imaginative...even the magic convinces." -Mary Renault, author of The King Must Die On The Path Toward Greatness, Every Hero Makes a Choice Legends sing of Sir Gawain, one of the most respected warriors of King Arthur's reign and one of the greatest champions of all time.
