Work Description
WATER SPIRIT DAMOSEL, the Lady of the Lake, glides through Arthurian legend like a glamorous wraith, shimmering and shifting between the worlds of fairies and humans. Her knowledge is vast (magic, metal, men's hearts) and leads to her greatest honor--and worst mistake. Damosel makes a promise to the wizard Merlin to protect young King Arthur, and then dares to break it--with devastating results. All the while, 17-year-old Twixt--a dwarf in a world where difference can be deadly--finds himself freed from his cruel masters and moving closer to the one place he never expected to see: King Arthur's court at Camelot.Stephanie Spinner intertwines the two narratives of Damosel and Twixt to draw us straight into the rich Arthurian land of enchantment.From the Hardcover edition.
