Available at Select Retailers

A Special 35th Anniversary Edition

From Medieval England comes the legend of the Queen of Knights.

     Conceived within the Druid mists, at the Pool of Pendragon, and as prophesied by a Druid Priestess, Gwendolyn Kildrake was born. She grew into womanhood in the days of Richard The Lion Heart, to become what the world had never seen.

When Miles Delong, Earl of Radstock and military adviser to King Richard first saw her, he was lost to her beauty and might. He taught her the art of war; Gwendolyn taught Sir Miles much more.

     Together, Gwendolyn and Miles fought their enemies at home and in the Holy Land. But it was not until Miles was betrayed and given over to Saladin, the King of the Moors, that Gwendolyn left England's Druid Groves for the Holy Land. She went, not as Gwendolyn Delong, wife of the Earl of Radstock, but as Sir Eldwin of Radstock, where she led the fight through the bloody Crusades and into to the very Court of Saladin, and there is where the Queen of Knights became a legend.
