My future, and the future of Avalon, is forward."Guinevere has always lived on the outskirts of Avalon, within view of the great castle of Camelot. Working at the city library, her life is fairly predictable. That is, until an encoded map rumored to lead to Excalibur arrives. But corruption runs rampant, and Avalon is overwrought with would-be king-slayers. To fix the land she calls home, she must find the mythical sword and rid the kingdom of those seeking to gain power for their own depravity. As Guinevere becomes more deeply embroiled in her search for Excalibur, she must form new alliances, like a duo of wise-cracking bounty hunters, and learn to use her book-smarts for good.Rise of Knight and Sword, the first installment of The One Sword Saga, explores the mythos of the Arthurian legend in a new, steampunk setting. It sets good against evil, ethics against lawfulness, and reputation against reward.
