The Legend of the Grail
Author: Nigel Bryant
Publisher: Boydell & Brewer
ISBN: 1843840065
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
A single, consistent and accessible narrative of the Grail story, constructed from the principal motifs and narrative strands of all the original Grail romances. The quest for the Holy Grail is one of the most important elements in the story of King Arthur. Yet even among the many interested in the stories of the Round Table, very few have read at first hand the medieval masterpieces whichover a period of some forty years, in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries, together became the foundation of the legend of the Grail. These romances, full of bewildering contradictions and composed by a numberof different writers with very different preoccupations, dazzle with the sheer wealth of their conflicting imaginative detail. In this new compilation, the enthralling material becomes truly accessible through his interweaving ofthe principal motifs and narrative strands of all the original Grail romances to construct a single, consistent version of the Grail story, while clearly tracing the development of its enigmatic and potent theme. All the mystery and drama of the Arthurian world are embodied in the extraordinary adventures of Perceval, Gawain, Lancelot and Galahad in their pursuit of the Grail. Told here as a unified, coherent narrative, the Grail legend reasserts its relevance as one of the great works of imaginative literature of the middle ages. NIGEL BRYANT's previous Arthurian books include The High Book of the Grail (Perlesvaus), Chretien de Troyes' Perceval and its Continuations, and Robert de Boron's Merlin and the Grail.

Book Description
You say witch like it’s a bad thing… Former fallen angel, current smokin’ hot enforcer, and all-around demon most likely to get the girl, Stefan of the Syx knows women better than they know themselves. He should, because once upon a time, one of them caused his brutal damnation. All these millennia later, however, Stefan still can’t resist a pretty smile. So when he learns his chance at redemption entails pairing up with a gorgeous redheaded spitfire, he’s ready to rock—until the other pitchfork drops. Because the bold, impulsive Cressida Frain’s not only a woman, she’s a witch. And a hookup between witches and demons is one of the few hard stops in Stefan’s book of Go. Unfortunately, this is one offer Stefan can’t refuse. To keep her new position as high priestess for her coven, Cressida must lead her people in an ultimate showdown against evil. To help her succeed, Stefan must allow Cressida to take him, break him and bind him to her—body and soul. But neither of them are prepared for what happens next… It’s out of the cauldron and into the fire when you’re a Demon Bewitched.

In this dark epic fantasy that crackles with sinister sorcery and eldritch energy, ancient evil and prophecy collide as an unsuspecting medieval kingdom, still recovering from a hellish oppression that devastated the land a thousand years earlier, is about to be plunged once more into nightmare. The end of the world is nigh! Sharn is the insane descendant of a people who were once forcibly interbred with demons from an extra-dimensional netherworld that's separated from ours by the thinnest of sorcerous veils... ...a veil that was once torn asunder in an accident of sorcery, opening a rent through which the demons poured and overran the land,enslaving the population... ...demons that were eventually driven back beyond the veil by a noble wizard who foretold that one day the demons would return, and so would he. Evil stirs in the land, and demons covet the world of mortals! Captured by knights who have hunted the hybrid demonspawn to near-extinction, Sharn is imprisoned in the dank depths of the royal castle, where he becomes caught up in the nefarious plans of a scheming king's chancellor who is secretly practicing the darkest of magical arts. The queen has just given birth to a son, kicking off the fulfillment of ancient prophecy. Sharn, somehow granted a reprieve from his madness by the newborn prince, kidnaps the royal heir and escapes the castle. They wait impatiently behind a wall that is about to be torn down by black sorcery! And the hunt begins, as Sharn flees across a countryside where every hand is turned against him, heading toward destiny. Now, a king’s evil chancellor schemes to reopen the Veil and once again unleash the demons. The world’s only hope of salvation is an insane boy, himself the descendant of demonic/human hybrids, and the newborn baby he’s kidnapped. keywords: dark fantasy, epic fantasy, demons, mutants, sorcery, wizards, kings and queens, novel
