Grail by Stephen R Lawhead

Grail by Stephen R Lawhead

"Suspenseful . . . soulful, philosophical . . . engagingly drawn . . . Arthurian Britain is invoked with robust verisimilitude." –Publishers Weekly A great king faces the ultimate challenge: a dangerous quest through realms of magic and the undead toward a confrontation with his destiny Drought, plague, and war have left the Isle of the Mighty battered and its heart, the beloved Arthur, grievously injured—until a secret relic is brought before the dying King; a Holy Grail that heals his wounds and restores his vigor. But soon evil enters the royal court in the guise of a beautiful maiden; a soulless, malevolent force capable of seducing the King’s loyal champion, confounding the sage whom some call Merlin, and carrying the sacred Grail—and Arthur’s adored Queen—off into the dark unknown.

One of the best works of Arthurian fantasy* Waterstones *
`Soars like a bird across a fictional canvas as huge as the sky.’ * On Being *
`The familiar tale, singularly reworked… Lawhead’s interpretation is different and distinctive.’ * Kirkus *
