description: Richard Monaco has taken a slice of the Arthurian legend and created a thoroughly modern-minded re-imagining of the classic tale. Colorful medieval settings blend with a hard-edged look at human foibles and a romantic story of love and loss is narrated with a lean, contemporary sensibility to form a new, but still ageless, adventure that anyone can enjoy. ... An innocent Prince rides forth on a dangerous quest, through a kingdom ruled by swords and sorcerers. In adventures wondrous and grave, he will hold the whiphandle of war and the amulet of a duchess, do battle with the Red Knight an challenge the kingdom of Death. He will forfeit his innocence to restore to Camelot a noble ideal. And his valor will become the song of legend.
