THE KING BOUND BY DUTY. THE KNIGHT HAUNTED BY DESIRE. THE WOLF THE SECRET THAT COULD TEAR THEM APART. Step into the resplendent courts and forests of medieval Brittany in this spellbinding retelling of the 12th-century tale of Bisclavret the werewolf . . . The wolf-sickness strikes always without warning, stealing Bisclavret's body and confusing his mind. Since boyhood, he hasn't dared leave the forest - not to beg the return of his father's lost estate, not to seek brotherhood among the court, not even to win the knighthood he yearns for. But when a new king ascends to the throne, he must deliver his kiss of fealty or answer for the failure. Half an exile himself, the young king is intrigued by this uneasy, rough-hewn nobleman. Bisclavret seems a perfect knight: bold, strong, and merciful. But he keeps his secrets close. The king's longing grows, until one day Bisclavret vanishes beyond reach. Battling desperation and grief, only duty to his people stands between the king and ruin - duty, and the wolf . . . Steeped in the texture of its source material and rendered with a precision of language that feels intimate and timeless, The Wolf and His King will transport you to a fireside - unmissable for fans of Samantha Shannon and Madeline Miller. 'Howlingly good' THE BOOKSELLER'Quiet, meditative, powerful' LOCUS'A beautiful, lyrical tale of love, betrayal and above all, yearning' SFX'With prose that flows off the page like honey' CRISTIN WILLIAMS'Will sink its teeth into you' V.
