AvalonSéria

V Avalone sa čitatelia ocitnú v mystickom svete, ktorý je hlboko spojený s legendami o kráľovi Artušovi a rytieroch okrúhleho stola. Tieto knihy ponúkajú originálny pohľad na artušovskú mytológiu a presúvajú dej do moderného sveta, kde sa staré legendy stretávajú s novými hrozbami. Rozpráva sa tu o sile priateľstva, obety a súbojoch medzi dobrom a zlom. Avalon je miesto, kde sa stretávajú minulosť a prítomnosť, a kde sa čitatelia učia hodnotám odvahy a spravodlivosti.

    The magical saga of the women behind King Arthur's throne. “A monumental reimagining of the Arthurian legends . . . reading it is a deeply moving and at times uncanny experience. . . . An impressive achievement.”—The New York Times Book Review In Marion Zimmer Bradley's masterpiece, we see the tumult and adventures of Camelot's court through the eyes of the women who bolstered the king's rise and schemed for his fall. From their childhoods through the ultimate fulfillment of their destinies, we follow these women and the diverse cast of characters that surrounds them as the great Arthurian epic unfolds stunningly before us. As Morgaine and Gwenhwyfar struggle for control over the fate of Arthur's kingdom, as the Knights of the Round Table take on their infamous quest, as Merlin and Viviane wield their magics for the future of Old Britain, the Isle of Avalon slips further into the impenetrable mists of memory, until the fissure between old and new worlds' and old and new religions' claims its most famous victim.

    This is Eilan's story and follows her through the three stages of life: maiden, mother and old woman. Eilan is born in A.D. 249 to the Roman citizen King Coel and the High Priestess of Avalon, who dies while bearing her. She is sent to live with her Roman father, where she is known by the Roman version of her name, Helen. After a decade with King Coel, Eilan returns to Avalon to be initiated into the sisterhood of the goddess. As a maiden, Eilan again attaches herself to Rome when she falls in love with the charismatic Roman Constantius. The Roman noble takes her away from Avalon and, before long, Helen bears him a son, who later becomes Constantine the Great. Helen's status in Roman society allows her freedom to travel about in the Pax Romana. As Helen is confronted by the spread of the new Christian religion, she draws frequently from her own knowledge of the goddess to deal with her life and with the people that surround her. Priestess of Avalon was an unfinished manuscript, but Diana L. Paxson, an accomplished author in her own right, completed it for Bradley posthumously. Here then, is the fourth -- and last -- installment of the Avalon series. It is the only book in the series that travels beyond the boundaries of the British Isles, but it keeps to Bradley's tradition of a story told through the eyes of a strong female character.
