Anna Elliott
Dear Reader,
She is a healer, a storyteller, a warrior, and a queen without a throne. And in the shadow of King Arthur's Britain, she alone knows the truth that could save a kingdom from the hands of a tyrant.
For those who loved Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Mists of Avalon comes a new tale of the heroic women at the heart of Arthurian legend. Seven years ago, the great King Arthur was slain by Mordred, his traitor son. In a desperate bid to unite Britain's warring factions, Isolde, daughter of Mordred, was married to Arthur's heir. But now Isolde's young husband lies murdered, and Isolde's only hope for survival is Trystan, a warrior with a shadowed past.
My Twilight of Avalon trilogy returns to the earliest roots of the King Arthur and Trystan and Isolde legends to shape a story of powerful love, magic, and one woman's courageous fight to control her own destiny and protect her kingdom.

"Anna Elliott has fashioned a worthy addition to the Arthurian and Trystan and Isolde cycles, weaving their stories together with Isolde's personal one. This Isolde steps out from myth to become a living, breathing woman and one whose journey is heroic."
Margaret George, New York Times bestselling author of Helen of Troy
"...Elliott explores and expands on the traditional legends and mythologies of King Arthur and Tristan and Isolde in a unique and delightful way. ... [She] has created a most promising first novel filled with passion, courage, and timeless magic."
Jane Henriksen Baird, Library Journal
"Elliott's reworking of a timeworn medieval tale reinvigorates the celebrated romance between Trystan and Isolde...Fans of the many Arthurian cycles will relish this appropriately fantastical offshoot of the Arthurian legend."
Margaret Flanagan, Booklist
