The bestselling author of the Valdemar novels pens
a classic tale about King Arthur's legendary
queen.
Gwenhwyfar moves in a world where gods
walk among their pagan worshipers, where nebulous visions
warn of future perils, and where there are two paths for a
woman: the path of the Blessing or the rarer path of the
Warrior. Gwenhwyfar chooses the latter, giving up the power
that she is born into. Yet the daughter of a King is never
truly free to follow her own calling. Acting as the "son"
her father never had, when called upon to serve another
purpose by the Ladies of the Well, she bows to circumstances
to become Arthur's queen-only to find herself facing
temptation and treachery, intrigue and betrayal, but also
love and redemption..
