Beautiful ladies, noble and brave knights, magical creatures, deer, hedgehogs and unicorns, kings and queens... Courtly stories in the best spirit of Chrétien de Troyes and Marie of Brittany in all their beauty of cruelty! Knight Gawain regains his glorious name, having gone through a series of humiliation.Ser Galevin learns what it’s like to live next to a wolf and love everything wolfish and everything human about him.Prince Turold finds out how easy it is to be the son of a monster.The ruler of Gardariki, Vsevolod, makes a deal for which his children and grandchildren pay.Blood and honeysuckle, wine and sea swells. Love of mortals and immortals. Black flames on the mounds of enemies. Magnificent poetic stylization from the author of the Languedoc Cycle and the Kingdom of Heaven.
