A highly unusual take on Merlin, Avalon and the Holy Grail. The Avalon of legend (where the Holy Grail was hidden) isn't on Earth but on the world of Pendragon where dragon shape-shifters reside. Apparently, Earth, Pendragon and the planet Honor joined forces to repel the Tribes - a force of Vikings trying to take over the world. And believe it or not, the Knights of the Round Table are actually twelve world leaders who joined together to defeat the Tribes. How cool is that?

Lucan (of Earth) wants the Grail to help the human race get their fertility back. Lady Cael (of Pendragon) wants it to save her nephew's life and Rion (of Honor) wants the Grail sent back to Earth because that is where it will do the most good for all the worlds. Now you know it's not that easy, of course, there are factions of Tribes on Pendragon working to procure the Grail for themselves. The battle lines are drawn and the fight is fierce. Who will survive the final battle and who will have the Grail?

An excellent start to the series with a sweet romance and a semi-happy ending.
