An immortal Knight of the Round Table faces his greatest challenge yetsaving the politically polarized, rapidly warming world from itselfin this slyly funny contemporary take on Arthurian legend.
A brilliant collision of ancient mysticism with modern madness.Robert Jackson Bennett, bestselling author of the Founders Trilogy
Legends dont always live up to reality.
Being reborn as an immortal defender of the realm gets awfully tiring over the yearsor at least thats what Sir Kays thinking as he claws his way up from beneath the earth yet again.

But now he finds himself in a strange new world where oceans have risen, the armys been privatized, and half of Britains been sold to foreign powers. The dragon thats running amokthat he can handle. The rest? Hes not so sure.
Mariams spent her life fighting whats wrong with her country. But shes just one ordinary person, up against a hopelessly broken system. So when she meets Kay, she dares to hope that the world has finally found the savior it needs.

But who will be fit to wield it?
