Enjoy the exciting fantasy fiction story War for the Green Land, the second novel in the fantasy series The Future History of the Grail. The three books in the series offer a new take on the King Arthur stories, placing the beloved characters ten centuries into the future.

War comes to the new Camelot

Red-haired Sir Percival and ailing King Arturus, captured after the Battle of the River Colum, face slavery in the Lucian Empire. Victorious General Robert Dardarius forces thousands of Viridian captives on a death march to the Lucian capital, but he offers Arturus a deal: Turn over information about the Viridian Grail, and he will stop his invasion of Viridiae and its capital, Camelot. Merlin appears in the Lucian capital with something better, a second Grail. Percival, Arturus, and Merlin escape the Lucians, but when they reach the reorganized Viridian army under Mordred Lothian, a new battle with the Lucians takes shape. Will Percival restore the true Grail to the Green Land and face down the Lucian threat?

The iconic names of Arthurian legend retain some of the identifying traits we expect, yet they are freshly drawn, relevant, and have agency under the author’s pen.” — L.S. Collison, author of Nurse Kit Carson’s Knife & Gun Club series

Rating: 4 out of 5.

The characters and settings of the story were filled with wonder, excitement, adventure, and thrill. All elements of science fiction, adventure, dystopian natured material, and post-apocalyptic notions are embodied in this storyline.” — Jeyran Main, Review Tales
