Guinevere thought that her life was over, that she would spend the rest of her days in a convent or hidden away in Avalon, but she was wrong. Cursed by Morgan LeFay, Queen Guinevere is banished from Avalon and must face the ages alone, hiding in the shadows as a vampire. Through the centuries, she's watched Arthur return again and again, but her love and respect for her husband and king has kept her away. Until now. Morgan LeFay has returned with an ominous threat, and once again Guinevere is forced to make an impossible choice.

Despite her family's witchy history, Morgan's life in modern-day London has always been depressingly normal. True, her aunt has always insisted that Morgan is the lost heir to Camelot, but that idea is entirely laughable. She can't even cast the simplest of spells. And when her magic fails to protect her loved ones, Morgan is certain she's not meant to be a witch.

There is a newly crowned King of Camelot: grandson of Arthur, son of Mordred. Now that peace is possible, the dynasty must prove it can deliver the promise of ideal justice associated with the name of Camelot.

Steeped in her rage, she becomes a storm of retribution, battling to avenge her brother's wrongs whilst trying to undo a terrible tragedy. But with her resurrection skills elusive and Camelot growing in glory and strength, Morgan is failing, her freedom under threat in the wake of her chaos and treasonous reputation.

In order to provide protection and stability for her fractious kingdom, Laurel Carnbrea, queen of Cambryn, must marry Sir Agravain, knight of the Round Table and nephew of King Arthur, a man she has never met and about whom she knows nothing.

When treachery and violence destroy Elen’s homeland, a power begins to rise inside her. But it will take more than that untested magic to avenge her family, unite her people, and reclaim their land. Her enemy receives power from an evil source: the wicked sorceress Morgaine LeFay, who will stop at nothing to destroy King Arthur and his knights of Camelot. And she plans to use Elen to work for her own vile purpose.

The Once and Future King has always been my curse. You think King Arthur is a hero. You blame me for the fall of Camelot. Because I refused to choose. Yes, I loved Lancelot. Once upon a time, I loved Arthur, too. I loved all of his friends, even Merlin. But Arthur's jealousy destroyed our love. He smashed the Round Table, banished Lancelot, and locked me in a burning tower. He would rather see me dead than love another man. Even his best friend. So now I'm doomed to repeat this grim tale over and over until Arthur wins my love. But this vampire queen will never choose Arthur.

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.

Morgan le Fey is ready to fully embrace her status as Camelot’s future Queen, even agreeing to a sit-down interview so her subjects can get to know the real her. But when the attempt ends in embarrassment, she fears she’s done more to harm her reputation than bolster it. Still, she’s ready to shrug it off and pretend it never happened until a terrifying vision sends her on another quest into the heart of enemy territory.

What would you do if an odd girl in a cloak told you, "You know you're a descendant of King Arthur's knight, Lancelot, right?" You'd probably do the same thing 14-year-old New Yorker Simon Sharp does. Back away nice and slow. But Simon learns the truth when he's kidnapped by a drunk troll, rescued by a 7 foot man named Merlin, and thrown into training with 149 other heirs of the Knights of the Round Table.

The Holy Grail, the kingdom of Camelot, the Knights of the Round Table, and the magical sword Excalibur are all key ingredients of the legends surrounding King Arthur. But who was he really, where did he come from, and how much of what we read about him in stories that date back to the Dark Ages is true? So far, historians have failed to show that King Arthur really existed at all, and for a good reason—they have been looking in the wrong place. In this book, Alistair Moffat shatters all existing assumptions about Britain's most enigmatic hero.
