Lancelot du Lac

Of all the formidable knights of Camelot, why is Lancelot the fiercest warrior? In his own voice, this peerless knight reveals how the joy of the blade possessed him. Blood and magic shape his story. Orphaned by war and brought up by a fairy in the depths of an enchanted lake, Lancelot belongs to two worlds. He takes to the field of battle in 6th century Britain as a creaturely spirit of death. And as a champion of love, spiritual and carnal, he reaches into legend, into the soul of the West, our Celtic twilight.
