Following on from the top 10 bestseller Lancelot, Giles Kristian returns to Britain´s greatest island history - the Arthurian legend - for his new novel: a rich tale of passion, heart-ache, adventure, war and wonder, this is the story of Galahad, son of Lancelot . . .
Following his acclaimed Sunday Times bestseller, Lancelot, Giles Kristian´s new novel returns us to the realms of Arthurian legend . . .
Britain is a land riven by anarchy, slaughter, famine, filth and darkness. Its armies are destroyed, its heroes dead, or missing. Arthur and Lancelot fell in the last great battle and Merlin has not been seen these past ten years. Now, the Saxons are gathering again, their warbands stalk the land, their king seeks dominion. As for the lords and kings of Britain, they look only to their own survival and will not unite as they once did under Arthur and his legendary sword Excalibur.
But in an isolated monastery in the Avalon marshes, a novice of the order is preparing to take his vows when the life he has known is suddenly turned upside down in a welter of blood. Two strangers - the wild-spirited, Saxon-killing Iselle and the ageing warrior Gawain - will pluck the young man from the wreckage of his simple existence. Together, they will seek the last druid and the cauldron of a god. And the young man must come to terms with his legacy and fate as the son of the most celebrated yet most infamous of Arthur´s warriors: Lancelot.
For this is the story of Galahad, Lancelot´s son - the reluctant warrior who dared to keep the dream of Camelot alive . . .
