AN ARTHURIAN LEGEND FOR THE FUTURE
The Keltiad novels map out a fair and wondrous realm – a faraway star empire that is at the same time both strangely familiar and utterly strange.
'The Oak Above the Kings' tells how Arthur, the lost prince, comes at last to his long-prophesied destiny: overthrowing the usurping Archdruid, Edeyrn, who for centuries has held all Keltia in thrall by the towering force of his evil magic; restoring Uthyr, king in exile, to his rightful place; coming at last to his own kingship, the double throne he must share, by law and love, with the one woman in all Keltia fit to share it with him – Gweniver, princess and priestess, his own cousin . . . and his wife.
Using Taliesin’s voice, telling the tale as only a bard could tell it, Patricia Kennealy-Morrison fashions from the age-old story of Arthur a legend for the future, to make him the true ‘oak above the kings’.
“Engrossing, entertaining, enlightening – and fun”
ANNE MCCAFFREY
“A highly effective combination of celtic mythology, SF and fantasy . . . an imaginatively wrought and scrupulously detailed series”
