The Arrow & the Sword

A Combined Retelling of King Arthur & Robin Hood

Sara Farnsworth

A lost lady, a sword encased in stone, and a knight seeking the truth.

Lady Gwynnivere would rather fight like a knight than embroider, much to her father’s chagrin. After years of training with her brother and their childhood friend, Gwynn is as fierce as they come. Yet danger from an unexpected foe encroaches, forcing her to flee for her life.

Sir Arthur and his fellow knights are tasked with Robin Hood’s capture. But when their mission goes vastly awry, Arthur’s only hope for justice is to retrieve Excalibur, end Prince John’s tyranny, and become the one true king.

Far more than despot princes, exorbitant taxes, and vigilante outlaws plague Avalon; long hidden secrets from the past threaten the realm. Can Arthur pull the sword from the stone to save Avalon? Will it be enough to save Gwynn?

Realms of Caelia is a series of interconnected combined fairy tale retellings. Each book weaves two traditional tales together into a unique story. They are best enjoyed in order. If you like sweet and clean romances, moments of hilarity, and magical fairy tales with happily ever after endings, then Realms of Caelia is for you!

But that love of writing and…
