King Arthur was a legendary British leader of the late fifth and early sixth century who, according to the medieval histories and romances, led the defense of the Romano-Celtic British against the Saxon invaders in the early sixth century. This book gives an account of the life of this great legend of all times.

Irish warrior and fifth knight Fionna Allán agonizes over an impossible choice. Either she saves her father and sister by betraying the three knights and king she loves, or she chooses her heart and dooms her family to death. Determined to find another way, Fionna strikes a bargain with Arthur Pendragon. She'll join his Grail Quest in exchange for his promise to ransom her family. Arthur is convinced that Fionna is a key to finding the legendary Grail. But the Grail will not yield its secrets easily.

Anger and disappointment burn within Fionna Allán following the Grail Quest. Her family still remain captives of a rival clann, and King Arthur Pendragon's kingdom continues to wither and die. Now Fionna's sworn enemy brings war to Arthur's shores with Morgan la Fay at his side - a battle Arthur and Caerleon can ill afford.

With his kingship in question and his people suffering to the point of rebellion, Arthur and his knights are forced to seek help from the gods.

The Knights of the Argoat is a grand, romantic adventure, set against the historical founding of post-Roman Brittany.

A knight is sworn to valor. His heart knows only virtue, his sword defends the helpless, and their might upholds the weak.

Be without fear in the face of darkness, and be brave and upright so that God may protect you.
