About the book

Lancelot & Guinevere recounts one of the central and most tragic relationships in the legends of King Arthur. Sir Lancelot, the greatest knight of the Round Table, falls in love with Queen Guinevere, the wife of King Arthur, creating a conflict between romantic devotion and loyalty to his king. Their forbidden love becomes increasingly important to the fate of Arthur's kingdom, contributing to division among the knights and the eventual collapse of the Round Table. The story combines chivalry, romance, betrayal and tragedy and remains one of the most enduring elements of Arthurian legend.
