Classic myths and royal tales are reborn in these sweeping fantasy adventures of prophecy, power, and love against the odds.
In Jean Menzies’ The Lady of the Lake, Viviane leaves the lakes of the North for Camelot, where she is meant to win the heart of Prince Arthur. But it is Arthur’s sister, Morgan, who captures her eye. As Viviane’s friendship with Morgan deepens into love and her own magical powers awaken, courtly schemes and the weight of destiny threaten to tear them apart—and take Camelot with them.
Holly Race’s Six Wild Crowns brings readers to the kingdom of Elben, where six queens are all that stand between the realm and ruin. Ambitious Boleyn will start a war to win the king’s favor, while spy and assassin Seymour uncovers the kingdom’s rotting magic. In a world of dragons, sapphic yearning, and deadly court politics, uneasy allies may shift the balance of power forever.
In A.S. Webb’s Daughter of Chaos, Danae, a fisherman's daughter, is cast out after strange powers awaken within her. Pursued by gods and driven by an ancient prophecy, she joins Heracles and his crew on a perilous journey to the ends of the world. But a terrible truth lies ahead—and Danae must decide if she will follow her heart or her destiny, as the fate of humanity hangs in the balance.
