FROM THE BESTSELLING, AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF IN MEMORIAM
'A dazzlingly witty punch to the gut . . . Winn is a once-in-a-lifetime talent' YAEL VAN DER WOUDEN, author of THE SAFEKEEP
'Funny, deliciously weird and - in the end - deeply moving' DAN JONES, author of POWERS AND THRONES
Irish princess Isode is certain she will marry a king worthy of her, and she believes that king might just be Sir Palomides – if only he would convert to Christianity. Her plans, however, are shattered when a mysterious knight named Tristram defeats her beloved in a tournament. Solitary, handsome, and fast becoming the best knight of all, Tristram has no interest in marrying Isode. He only wanted to win approval – worship – from his idol, Palomides, and a seat with the knights of the Round Table. But after the tournament, Tristram and Isode’s fates are tied – whether they like it or not.
As civil war brews in Camelot, Isode tries to regain control of her once glittering future. Amid turmoil and magic, Tristram and Isode set off on a perilous voyage and begin to see each other in a new light. What if their future holds more than either of them could ever imagine?
Dazzlingly inventive and endlessly surprising, WORSHIP is a stunning novel about faith and love in the face of uncertainty – of how far we might go, and what we’re willing to lose, for the ones we love.
I laughed, I cried, was bowled over and then re-thought every friendship I ever had. WORSHIP is a dazzlingly witty punch to the gut, an Arthurian answer to love in modern times. Winn is a once-in-a-lifetime talent and WORSHIP is unlike anything you’ve ever read -- Yael van der Wouden, author of THE SAFEKEEP
In WORSHIP, Alice Winn has done something very special: created a vision of the medieval world that is both authentic and utterly her own. Funny, deliciously weird and - in the end - deeply moving, this book is a golden addition to the legend of King Arthur -- Dan Jones
Taking you captive from the first sentence, Alice Winn’s WORSHIP never lets go in this tumultuous reimagining of Arthurian legend. Her knights and princesses are gloriously, imperfectly human, as likely to be undone by their own feelings as by any enemy. Completely different in tone, content and style from her debut, IN MEMORIAM, WORSHIP is destined to become another instant classic in a genre all its own -- Hannah Rothschild, author of MASTERPIECE
Alice Winn builds a brilliant, beguiling world from the materials of medieval chivalry. Her book is witty and surprising at every turn, and utterly involving. Poised between the fifteenth and twenty-first centuries, Winn’s prose captures the timelessness of stories of honour and chivalry, love and tragedy -- Antony Bale, author of A TRAVEL GUIDE TO THE MIDDLE AGES
A profound and beautifully written reimagining of one of Britain’s oldest legends. Alice Winn returns to the story of Tristram and Isode and finds in it something urgent and deeply human. Worship is a searching novel about faith, love and sacrifice, intelligently written and alive to the strangeness of the medieval world. A triumph! -- Alice Loxton
