Spear

For those of us fans of Hild, Griffith's beloved historical epic set in early Britain, who can't wait until its sequel, Menewood, arrives next spring, this little adventure is the ideal appetizer to hold us until the main course arrives. Set a world much like Hild but embracing the magic of the Arthurian legends that grew from the same era, Spear is a lively and delightfully queer tale of love, adventure, and swordplay that uses the mythic traditions of Camelot, as well as the everyday details of life in medieval Britain, to imagine a young woman full of life and fire.
