Overview
La leyenda de Camelot nunca terminó. Solo esperaba a la Reina Ginebra.
Ella no recuerda Camelot. Pero Camelot jamás la olvidó.
LAS LEYENDAS NO SIEMPRE CUENTAN TODA LA HISTORIA.
Tras la repentina muerte de su novio, lo único que quiere Vera es pasar desapercibida; y se conforma con lavar sábanas y limpiar baños en un hotel de Glastonbury. Pero cuando un misterioso huésped se le presenta como Merlín y se la lleva con él de vuelta al Camelot del siglo VII, todo cambia. Merlín insiste en que Vera no es solo Vera, sino la mítica reina Ginebra… y que además es la única que puede deshacer la maldición que está vaciando la magia del reino, y salvar así Camelot de las malvadas intenciones de una maga ávida de poder.
Solo hay un problema: Vera no recuerda nada de su vida anterior. Y con Camelot al borde del colapso, apenas hay tiempo. Así que Merlín ha de esforzarse en recuperar los recuerdos de Vera lo antes posible, al tiempo que ella desentraña una enrevesada historia de traición, poder y desamor. ¿Por qué el rey Arturo muestra revulsión cada vez que Vera está en su presencia? ¿Qué sucedió en realidad la noche en que se echó la maldición? ¿Y por qué con cada respuesta que encuentra parece que la estuviesen partiendo por la mitad?
En un reino anclado en la leyenda, Vera debe decidir quién es, antes de que el pasado aniquile el futuro.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Outlander-meets-The Princess Bride plus Camelot in a fresh, big-hearted, feminist, timeslip adventure reimagining the epic saga of King Arthur, as told from the perspective of his spunky and surprising queen, Vera – complete with time travel and good running shoes!
LIMITED FIRST EDITION WITH SPRAYED EDGES
Vera always knew she didn’t fit in. When she learns that she is meant to be in another time, she leaps at the chance to embrace a new life in a world of valor, intrigue, and unexpected magic in this bold and romantic retelling of Arthurian legend . . .
22-year-old Vera is at a crossroads: waiting tables, grieving her previous relationship, and jogging aimlessly each morning as if toward an uncertain future. Then an odd man shows up at her workplace, insisting that she was once the legendary Queen Guinevere of Camelot, and that her lost memories hold the key to changing both the past and the present. Somehow, it all feels like the direction she’s been looking for. But when she asks the mysterious man to tell her more about Lancelot, Arthur, and a faithless queen, he can only say that much of what she’s heard about Camelot is wrong. The truth, he claims, is something she must see for herself.
After jumping through a portal in Glastonbury’s historic center, Vera is not prepared for what she finds. Magic is everywhere, but a curse on the kingdom means it dwindles every day. She has no idea how to perform a queen’s duties. Her fast friendship with Lancelot sets gossip flowing, and the stranger she must call “husband” often refuses to meet her eye. Arthur is a puzzle: cold, forbidding, and, while angry to her face, keeps leaving secret tokens of tenderness in her chambers. Worst of all, Vera’s memories—and the answers locked within them—show no signs of returning. If Vera is truly destined to save Camelot, she’ll have to trust her instincts. And her king will have to trust her . . .
