Arthurian Fiction

Ethan and his companions are recovering from the Tomb of Pendragon, but a new adventure calls. They have found an ancient journal belonging to the legendary wizard, Merlin, and it has directions to the ancient city. But dangers lurk on the road to Camelot, and possibly in Camelot itself. Before they know it, Ethan and his friends are swept into an adventure that may unveil untold secrets - or release untold evil.

Ethan and his companions have returned to Hawkshead, but all is not well. Something is scaring away the animals in the area and wreaking havoc on the village’s food supply. The villagers call on Ethan and his friends to find the problem and deal with it. All clues lead the group to the old abandoned mine and the tomb which the former mayor uncovered. What sort of magic or monster could scare away the animals, and what traps may still lurk in the tomb's darkness?

Still having questions about the new world he's been dropped into, Ethan has more pressing concerns figuring out who or what is killing the wizards. Unfortunately, the only source of those answers seems to be the members-only library of the Order of the Scroll. Of course, he can join and read all the books he wants - but there's a catch. The custodians of the library first want him to retrieve some lost tomes from an abandoned library in a ruined city. Seems simple, right? Not a chance. Did they forget to mention that no one who's entered the library has ever returned?

Kat Howard has already been called a “remarkable writer” by Neil Gaiman, and her “dark and enticing” (Publishers Weekly) debut novel, Roses and Rot, was beloved by critics and fans alike. Now you can experience her collected shorter works, including two new stories. In these stories, equally as beguiling as her novels, Howard expands into the enchanted territory of myths and saints, as well as Arthurian legend, with a novella set upon a college campus, retelling the story of King Arthur through women’s eyes.

There was once, long ago, a foolish king who decreed that women should not, and would not, inherit. Thus when a girl-child was born to Lord Cador - Merlin-enchanted fighter of dragons and Earl of Cornwall - he secreted her away: to be raised a boy so that the family land and honour would remain intact. That child’s name was Silence. Silence must find their own place in a medieval world that is determined to place the many restrictions of gender and class upon them. With dreams of knighthood and a lonely heart to answer, Silence sets out to define themselves.

Lady Risa of the Morelands has already caught the eyes and won the hearts of many suitors. Not one of them, though, can gain the approval of her father, Lord Rygehil. When Risa discovers his secret - that he promised her to the necromancer Euberacon - she is furious, and terrified. Refusing to be a sacrifice, Risa runs away rather than submit to her fate. But Euberacon is determined to claim his bride, and Risa's raw courage and archery skills are no match for his magic. Lucky for her, she is not alone.

Evil is loose in the kingdom - a malevolence so thoroughly corrupt that it has sickened the very land itself.

The quest will take the legendary knights on a journey across Briton...culminating in an astonishing confrontation that will leave the listener breathless in Kingdom of Summer's wake.
