From the author of 2020's astonishing The Story of Silence comes another retelling of a chivalric legend, full of magic, myth and self-discovery.

A knightly fairy tale of royalty and dragons, of midwives with secrets and dashing strangers in dark inns. Taking the original French legend as his starting point, The Story of Silence is a rich, multilayered new story for today's world - sure to delight fans of Uprooted and The Bear and the Nightingale. There was once, long ago, a foolish king who decreed that women should not, and would not, inherit. Thus when a girl-child was born to Lord Cador - Merlin-enchanted fighter of dragons and Earl of Cornwall - he secreted her away: to be raised a boy so that the family land and honour would remain intact. That child's name was Silence. Silence must find their own place in a medieval world that is determined to place the many restrictions of gender and class upon them. With dreams of knighthood and a lonely heart to answer, Silence sets out to define themselves. Soon their silence will be ended.

The narrative follows Ron Bancroft, a transgender man who faces rejection from his family and girlfriend after coming out at nineteen. Seeking independence and affirmation of his identity, he leaves Harvard for a ranch in Wyoming. As he navigates the challenges of living authentically, Ron grapples with the fear of being discovered in a harsh and unwelcoming environment. Alex Myer's Continental Divide is a poignant coming-of-age story that explores themes of identity, acceptance, and resilience in the face of adversity.
