A spellbinding sapphic reimagining of the myths of Camelot from award-winning historian and YouTube sensation Jean Menzies.
'A fierce, luminous and captivating reimagining of Arthurian legend that pairs feminist resistance with a scorching sapphic romance. The Lady of The Lake had me completely under its spell' BEA FITZGERALD
--
When Lady Viviane leaves the lakes of the far North for the splendour of Camelot, she knows the destiny her father has planned for her. To capture the heart and hand of the young prince, Arthur. To bring her family richness and glory.
But it is Arthur's sister Morgan who captures Viviane's eye. Fierce and headstrong, Morgan sees another path - one she and Viviane can carve for themselves in this world built for knights and kings.
Now everything has shifted and changed. Under the guidance of the court sorcerer Merlin, she discovers magical powers within herself. And before long, she finds her friendship with Morgan deepening to the first flush of love.
But in Camelot, eyes are everywhere and no one is as they seem.
The quest for power breeds darkness and danger, and when Arthur pulls the legendary sword from the stone and rises to King, his closest allies will ask terrible things of Viviane and Morgan - striving to tear them apart for their own ends.
And if they cannot find their way back to each other, Camelot itself could fall . . .
