The Guinevere'S Tale Trilogy

Almost everyone knows the story of the great King Arthur. But what do we really know about his queen? Literature tells painfully few things:She was Arthur's wife.She had an affair with Lancelot for which she was condemned to die.She ended her days in a convent.Or at least, that's what most people have remembered over time.But no one's identity should be reduced to a handful of incidents. Guinevere had a childhood, a family and dreams for her future. She was a queen and may or may not have been a mother. As for her infamous affair, every situation has a context that is important to understanding it, even when it's the climax that is remembered. Guinevere had reasons for acting as she did and she didn't do it in a vacuum. The circumstances surrounding her affair are just as important as the act itself. The medieval tale of her ending her days in a convent is convenient and moral, but we all know life is messy and usually doesn't end tied up in a nice bow. Chances are good there was far more to Guinevere's story than we've ever heard.Guinevere's Tale, a box set containing Daughter of Destiny, Camelot's Queen, and Mistress of Legend seeks to answer these questions. In it, Guinevere tells her own story - from the age of 11 to well into her 50s - seeking to right the wrongs history has thrust upon her, to clear away the mists of time and give the reader a clear picture of who she really was, virtues, sins and all. As she says in the prologue: "I deserve to be able to bear witness before being condemned by men who never saw my face. Grieve with me, grieve for me, but do not believe the lies which time would sell. All I ask is that mankind listen to my words, and then judge me on their merit."
