About QUEEN OF KNIGHTS A Medieval Fantasy

From Medieval England comes the legend of the Queen of Knights — The Special 35th Anniversary Edition. Conceived within the Druid mists, at the Pool of Pendragon, and as prophesied by a Druid Priestess, Gwendolyn Kildrake was born. She grew into womanhood in the days of Richard The Lion Heart, to become what the world had never seen. When Miles Delong, Earl of Radstock and military adviser to King Richard first saw her, he was lost to her beauty and might. He taught her the art of war; Gwendolyn taught Sir Miles much more. Together, Gwendolyn and Miles fought their enemies at home and in the Holy Land. But it was not until Miles was betrayed and given over to Saladin, the King of the Moors, that Gwendolyn left England's Druid Groves for the Holy Land. She went, not as Gwendolyn Delong, wife of the Earl of Radstock, but as Sir Eldwin of Radstock, where she led the fight through the bloody Crusades and into to the very Court of Saladin, and there is where the Queen of Knights became a legend. —— What they are saying about Queen of Knights "Historical Fiction and Fantasy...Outstanding!" Andre Norton, SFWA Grand Master & Gandoalf Grand Master of Fantasy “QUEEN OF KNIGHTS is an unusual fantasy in which history as well as fiction dances to the author’s piping.”—Roberta Gellis, author of the Rosalynde Chronicles. "The writing of this book draws a reader in. The story is told almost mythically.... In the end, it was a fun read!"—AMZ “…a magnificent well-rounded read!” Alex James, UK
