Více o knize

In perilous times, the realm requires not just a hero but a knight in shining armor. Sir Kay and his fellow knights awaken from their mythical slumber whenever Britain is in need; they’ve fought at Agincourt and the Somme. However, in today's divided world, a dragon has emerged for the first time in centuries, along with other ancient terrors. This contemporary take on the myths of Camelot explores what happens when the Knights of the Round Table return to address modern issues. This debut novel is a must-read for fans of Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, Jodi Taylor, and Ben Aaronovitch. It has quickly become a Sunday Times bestseller and won the Fantasy Hive 'Debut of the Year' award. Critics praise it as a witty and original spin on Arthurian legend, combining humor with sharp social commentary. Readers will find it funny, wise, and refreshingly unique, appealing to those who enjoyed "Rivers of London" and "Good Omens." With elements of ancient mysticism clashing with modern madness, the book promises relentless entertainment, deadpan humor, and a heartfelt narrative. It features knights, mad science, corporate villainy, and dragons poised to wreak havoc, making it a delightful and accomplished debut.
