    • After awakening drenched and in disbelief, the bewildered Gwyneth battles in contemplating the new reality she finds herself in. She kneels beside a boy she’s never known, bound to him in bondage as a myriad of spectators descend upon them. It’s clear by his eyes, she is not alone in this, the fear and confusion all apparent. At the centre of the countless crowd, seven marvels stand out and stare brazenly at them. Monstrosities in size and look, their gazes describe a dubious destiny ahead.Gwyneth is unsure of what is to come, but she can be certain that this was far from what her father had described. This is not the Bonding, where she is to find her goddess Murielabel by floating in the sea, far from it. She is distressed as her once hopeful mind, now anything but, is plagued by a single question. “Have I been sold a lie, or has something gone terribly wrong?”

      Covering Arthurian legend, Templars, King John, the Crown Jewels, and Thomas Becket, this exciting new account of what happened to the Holy Grail after the Last Supper reveals where it is now This is the story of a plain silver chalice from the first century AD that now rests in the heart of England. From its momentous beginnings as the cup used by Christ at the Last Supper, and as the vessel used to catch his blood at the Crucifixion, to its unrecognized discovery in the late 19th century, the chalice has passed through the hands of saints, crusaders, kings, queens, Templar knights, and "Guardians." This account revisits the beginnings of the Knights Templar and their rise to incredible wealth and power, it introduces a completely new version of the origins of the Arthurian legends, and it disputes the supposed loss of the Crown Jewels in the Wash and the cause of King John’s subsequent death. It reexamines the murder of Thomas Becket and resurrects the forgotten story of a knight who went from disregarded son and child hostage to Regent of England and Guardian of the Grail. The story reveals the reason behind one of England’s greatest church mysteries: an early 13th-century clue that took more than 700 years to be deciphered. Most importantly of all, however, it establishes where the Holy Grail is now.

      The Grail Chronicles
    • The world of Sir John Mandeville was bounded by fantasy, superstition, and dread. For most Europeans, knowledge of other countries was limited to tales brought back by the few people that had travelled beyond their borders. In the England of the 14th century, the vast majority would have viewed a visit to the next village as a major event. Sir John Mandeville was one of the intrepid few who ventured beyond, at least according to his own book. His account of his adventures first appeared in the late 1400s and became an instant "best-seller." His tales of devils in the Valley Perilous, men with eyes in their shoulders, and ants that filled empty jars on the backs of horses with gold fascinated Europe. He also learned that diamonds had gender and, with little encouragement, would breed while protecting their owner from all harm.
