Synopsis
In the final book of the series, Terence and his fellow Knights of the Round Table must unite to defend Camelot. Familiar characters from earlier books, including Terence, Gawain, Lynet, Dinadan and Palomides, all have important parts to play. Morgause and Mordred are working to destroy King Arthur's kingdom, and dark magic has spread through England. The knights aim to stop the two schemers and drive that magic out, while the old legend of Camelot's fall hangs over everything they do. The novel brings together the threads of the earlier nine books and closes the series.
