The destruction of a man.
The devastation of a woman.
The creation of a king.
Merlin destroyed two lives to create one. But that one… is King Arthur. In the third installment of The Swithen, The king, his faithful knight, a beautiful woman, her adoring husband, their daughters, and the entire country are drawn into the wizard's twisted psychological game of intrigue in order to create the one thing that can transform fledgling Britain: A king.
Merlin's control over King Uther Pendragon's life leaves him struggling to express his own will—or any control over his life. After an attempt at making his own decision fails spectacularly, Uther fixates on the lovely (and married) Igraine, believing only her love can fill the yawning hole in his life. What neither of them realize is that they are both falling into Merlin's devious design, a plan that will leave both of their lives devastated, tear the young country apart—and give Merlin what he wants: a child born of nobility he can mold into the future King Arthur.
Faithful to the centuries-old legend and its dark mysteries, The Void Place is far from a pleasant fable of noble kings and lovely ladies, but a murky labyrinth of obsession, manipulation, vicious hatreds, unforgivable crimes and unexpected friendship and tenderness, set against a backdrop filled with magic and court intrigue.
At the end, the main character of our series is born.
Containing the explosive event that sets the Arthurian legend in motion, this novel establishes the conflicts that will resonate throughout the rest of the saga. Meet future sorceress Morgan Le Fay at only ten years old and learn why she vows to avenge their mother by destroying King Arthur in the decades to come. Encounter her sister Margause, future mother of Arthur's famed knight, Sir Gawain. Know a young King Lot and see why he will make war on Arthur in fifteen years. And discover the tale of Ulfius, loyal friend to the ailing Uther, and future mentor to his son, the young Arthur.
The Swithen series is committed to remaining faithful to the events of the actual Arthurian legend from 800 years ago, so you will know that as you read, you are learning the real stories of King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, the Knights of the Round Table and so much more. What this series does is add the psychology, illuminate important interconnections, and bring its intriguing mysteries to the fore to make the ancient legend compelling to today's readers.
Experience a twisting tale of madness, power, war and love as we witness the fall of a king and the destruction of a lady, victims of Merlin's single-minded focus on creating a man that will bend the country to his will—and become the greatest king Britain will ever know.
