About the Book

One hundred years after the falling of King Arthur the story begins. This is the first in a continuation of books leading into the 21st century.  

Many years have passed without the magic Orchid of Camelot.  It was discovered by the evil Morgan, this is what fed the magic to Camelot.  To ensure never again would the Kingdom thrive, before her death she transported the flower far from the Kingdom.  For too long Camelot has dwelled in hunger, pestilence and death.  King Stefan, the new ruler, waits in sorrow for the promised appearance of eleven great men, direct descendants of the First Knights.  One of these men was promised to be the purest of Knights and would lead the journey for the magic Orchid. Slowly the men are led to Stefan, either by dreams, visions or orders from their families. Along their journeys they are met by the evil ones who force unwanted battles on them.  Some of the men were left for dead while others were aided by angelic beings. Violent forces of nature came down upon them threatening the journeys even more, but there was no stopping these gallant men.

When they all  are safe in Camelot, impatiently they await the arrival of the twelfth man to close the Round Table circle.  This man was said to be the truest and purest of  Knights.  A direct descendant of Lancelot, he would be the one to free the Excalibur and lead the men on the journey for the magical Orchid.

Rex finally arrives after witnessing the death of his dearest and oldest friend Joshua.  The Kingdom looks at him in doubt wondering how one so young could help bring life to their Kingdom . . .   Everyone except King Stefan.  The other Knights find it hard to accept this new lad as their savior but are silent.  They were sure when the time came to free the Excalibur, Rex would be a failure, thus proving their point.

Rex stays the night and when dawn breaks is ordered to join the King and his Knights to where the Excalibur is.  Will he prove the Round Table wrong?  Is he the long awaited one? Read the book to find out if the young Rex is the purest of Knights.  Accompany the men on their journey through hell to save a Kingdom they believe in.  Feel their sorrow, share their pain, shed tears for their loss, but always remember, Every evil has within its core a need to be good and every good has an attraction to evil.  You’ll recognize these heartfelt themes: what was true long ago, is true as it leads into the 21st century.  One door opens to lead a path into another.  Times change, but magic lives, heroes return and perhaps Camelot will rule.


About the Author

Proven by the success of such movies as Merlin, Excalibur and Highlander Series, the human spirit of people today cry out for true and pure heroes.  One who can follow their hearts with magical results.  While there have been countless books that weave their stories in and out of King Arthur, none (as far as my research has led me) attempted a sequel of the Knights of the Round Table.  I have read many books, seen the movies and researched the internet, but still I have failed to come across such a story.  Yes all the books are wonderful, I have loved them all and am sure I have missed some, but believe mine is unique in its own right.       Come on in, meet Rex, meet the new knights, share their dreams and sorrow.  Once more believe in the magic of a legend thought to have perished. This first book will spark the imagination, leaving it hungry for more.  I have given birth to a new kingdom.  I have nurtured them, loved them, watched them grow.  Now I wish for you, the readers to adopt them.  Share their lives and soon you will find yourselves loving them as much as I do.
