Arthurian legend; British history; questions of faith; contemporary mystery; even a love story - what's not to like? In 2016, Professor Arthur Prescott is happiest in the library of Barchester Cathedral among medieval texts and his own Penguin copies of P.G. Wodehouse. But our story really starts in A.D. 560 in the ruins of St. Ewolda Monastery. Barchester and Ewolda are figments of Lovett's imagination but the story hangs on many real people and events in British and literary history. Pure escapist fun for anyone who believes in the magic of books and libraries ... and maybe the grail.
