By birthright, I am heir to the throne stolen from my motherâ€¦â€ In this spellbinding novel of dangerous magic and burning desire, Mordredâ€™s first forbidden passion for the greatest knight of his fatherâ€™s kingdom leads him to break the most sacred law and betray his own peopleâ€¦sending him on a treacherous journey from which few have ever returned.

Reviews of Mordred, Bastard Son
*Starred Review* â€œRivetingâ€¦Clegg puts an inspired wrinkle in the hoary tale of Arthur and the grail by casting Arthurâ€™s kindred enemy, Mordred, as a gay man. An injured stranger in a cloak and odd, paganish mask, is captured and held in a monastery, igniting wild speculation among the locals, who believe him a notorious traitor. And so he is. He is Mordred, the bastard son of Arthur Pendragon and his half sister, the witch-queen Morgan Le Fay, and he now awaits trial for murder and treasonâ€¦How excellent.â€ â€“ Booklist.

Mordred, Bastard Son by Douglas Clegg â€“ Arthurian fantasy, historical fantasy, legendâ€œDouglas Cleggâ€™s stunning Mordred, Bastard Son will inspire and refreshâ€¦â€ â€“ Michael Rowe, Advocate Magazine.

â€œClegg (The Priest of Blood) maintains a nice balance between the human and mythic dimensions of his characters, portraying the familiar elements of their story from refreshingly original angles.â€ â€“ Publishers Weekly.

â€œWell-crafted. Written in lyrical prose with colorful characters and historical depth. Lovers of both history and fantasy will discoverâ€¦an enchanting read.â€ â€“ Edge Boston.

â€œClegg beautifully skewers the Arthurian legends, weaving a compelling story, single-handedly reinventing Mordredâ€™s sexuality. He is no longer the betrayer of Arthur, the knight Lancelot, and Guinevere, Queen of the Britons; he is now the seductive and passionate hero, a lover of men given the almost insurmountable task of finding the cauldron of rebirthâ€¦â€ â€“ Michael Leonard, Curled Up with a Good Book Blog.

â€œâ€¦Magicâ€”true magic that really worksâ€”takes center stage inâ€¦Mordred, Bastard Sonâ€¦a refreshing return to the myth and magic of the legendsâ€¦Cleggâ€™s approach recalls Sir Thomas Mallory, ChrÃ©tien de Troyes, and even Edmund Spenser at times; his setting is never made temporally explicit but rather melds Celtic, Roman, Anglo-Saxon, and high medieval British elements.â€ â€“ Strange Horizons.
