Yseult: A Tale of Love in the Age of King Arthur

By Ruth Nestvold / Genre: Fantasy / Rating: 4.3 out of 5 stars

Yseult: A Tale of Love in the Age of King Arthur

“There is a large cast of characters to meet, but once you learn their names you are rewarded with a multifaceted storyline full of intrigue and suspense.”

For the price of a truce, Yseult is sent to a world where magic is dying – to marry the father of the man she loves.

Marcus’s son Drystan would have saved her from a loveless marriage, but with her relatives being held hostage, Yseult cannot endanger them and must go through with the wedding. The tragic love story of Yseult and Drystan plays out against the backdrop of a violent world threatening to descend into the Dark Ages – only Arthur’s battles to push back the Saxon hordes can save what is left of civilization. With her background, Yseult could act as a bridge between the old age and the new – but will the price be too high?

Yseult is a retelling of the tragic love story of Tristan and Isolde, a story older than Romeo and Juliet or Lancelot and Guinevere; an Arthurian romance with roots going back far into the realm of legend and the undying tales of King Arthur.
