Sir Gawain and his squire Terence have set off on another adventure, only to be deterred by a surprise disaster. As a result, Gawain must meet with the invincible Green Knight in a contest that could easily be Gawain’s last. But the road to impending death is never easy, and theirs is filled with danger and mishaps. Along the way Gawain and Terence cross paths with many odd men. Even odder creatures from the Other World will teach Terence about his past, and perhaps a little about his future. Gawain and Terence must rescue a not-too-typical damsel-in-distress, Lady Eileen, from the evil Marquis of Alva. In Lady Eileen, Terence may have met his match, in more than one way. One thing is certain: when Gawain and Terence finally encounter the Green Knight, it will be the knight’s turn to be surprised.

Dinadan merkt bald, dass seine Balladen über spektakuläre und heldenhafte Taten der Ritter nichts als Mythen sind und er beweist, dass zur Erlangung von Ehre, Ruhm und wahrer Liebe nicht immer ein Schwert gehört ...
