From the dust jacket: In a world torn apart by invasion and civil war...

Nimue, a ferryman's daughter, falls in love with a young bard who has visions of a great leader and a land at peace.

Morgan, a wild and haunted woman, meets her half brother for the first time--and believes he will be her salvation.

Luned, a handmaiden with a gift for arranging the lives of others, finds that her plans have consequences she never imagined.

Medraud, a son trapped in his mother's scheme of vengeance, hungers for love from a father whom he's never known.

And a king named Arthur struggles to find an elusive balance between war and peace, mercy and justice, love and betrayal.

The Dragon's Son is a vividly fresh and thought-provoking retelling of the King Arthur legend. It spins together the searing stories of four complex individuals struggling to make their ways in a violent, turbulent time, and of the king whose reign will be preserved or shattered by the choices they make.
