NAMED A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK BY THE NEW YORK TIMES, GOODREADS, AND THE MILLIONS AND A TODAY SHOW BEST BOOK OF MAY

From the bestselling author of Out East, a breathtaking reimagining of the legend of Sir Lancelot—an epic Arthurian fantasy about destiny, identity, and forbidden love at the heart of Camelot.

Hidden away on the Isle of Women, a nameless orphan grows up among a powerful sisterhood, always at a distance. But whispers follow him: a prophecy naming him Lancelot, tied to the fate of King Arthur's court.

Determined to master the skills of knighthood, he trains alongside the charismatic Galehaut. As the two become inseparable, their bond deepens into a love that will shape both their destinies—yet each is bound to a role in Merlin's unfolding prophecies.

When Lancelot is summoned to Camelot, he enters the world of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. There, amid quests for the Holy Grail and the rising threat of Roman forces, he must navigate loyalty, love, and the growing truth of the life he left behind.

Steeped in medieval myth and Arthurian legend, The Lost Book of Lancelot is an immersive retelling of one of literature's most enduring figures—an epic tale of war, fate, and a love that could reshape a kingdom.
