You don't become a knight. You already have knighthood within you.
Seventeen-year-old Ren Bedivere is no stranger to the protected life in Camelot, even though the rest of the kingdom is war-torn in the aftermath of King Arthur's reign. As the son of a respected Knight of the Round Table, he's trained his entire life with the expectation of becoming the first person knighted since Arthur's death.
But when his name isn't called at the knighting ceremony, and his girlfriend betrays him by joining forces with Mordred's vengeful sorcerer son seeking the throne, Ren is thrust into a world of self-doubt, questioning the life he knows.
With a nudge from Merlin, Ren sets out on a rogue quest with his friends by his side-his supportive twin sister, the wise-cracking best friend, and a mysterious druid girl who is more than she appears. Together, they must venture to retrieve the legendary sword Excalibur to protect their home.
The quest leads to an ancient magic that may save Camelot but uncovers a generation of lies about the king and his knights that, once revealed, threaten to destroy the kingdom. In the shadow of betrayal, Ren must choose to embrace the legacy of the knights who came before or shatter the myths to tell his own story.
A multi-POV King Arthur continuation with a new generation of knights.
Book one of The Descendants of the Round Table series.
