The Grail Quest: A Tale of Magic (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798555988218)

James is a bestselling crime novelist whose career is on the rocks-and so is his sanity. For months he's been haunted by unrelenting dreams of Christ on the cross, a bloody chalice, and England's fabled Glastonbury Tor. Driven half-mad, he abandons L.A. for the English countryside in a desperate bid to silence the visions.

But he finds much more than quaint bed-and-breakfasts and ancient ruins.

There's Marion: a brilliant, beautiful psychic dying of a rare lung disease-who's been dreaming about him just as vividly. And then there's Arthur: yes, that Arthur. The Once and Future King himself, reborn in modern England with a mission of his own.

Together they'll unravel prophecies, dodge sword-wielding fanatics, and follow clues buried in centuries of myth and legend. Because something is calling them all to Glastonbury-and it's not just the ghosts of the past.

James doesn't believe in destiny. But destiny believes in him.

The Grail Quest is a smart, funny, and heartfelt adventure that weaves romance, metaphysical mystery, and the timeless magic of Arthurian legend into an unforgettable modern journey. Perfect for fans of Susanna Clarke, Mary Stewart, Paulo Coelho, and anyone who's ever dreamed of pulling the sword from the stone.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:

"Not only is The Grail Quest a wonderful Arthurian tale and page-turning adventure, but the spiritual lessons interwoven in the storyline gave me pause to consider a new perspective on many things. Let me put it this way, I'll be 'redipping' frequently into several passages-especially the one involving James and the dragon. Powerful stuff. Imagery and prose I'll never forget! And that's on top of the impish sense of humor Rain brings to his writing." -Aiden James, bestselling author of Immortal Plague

"I finished The Grail Quest in record time! I found it both wonderfully suspenseful and rich with theological reflection. Your fresh treatment of the familiar opening scene pulled me right in. And how well you evoke Glastonbury! There is wonderful suspense here too. I'll be very interested to see where you go with the once and future king." -Robert Siegel, award-winning author of Whalesong

★★★★★ "It is always refreshing to read a book that is both well edited and a great story. The Grail Quest is just such a book. There is just enough foreshadowing, not just the title of the piece, to let you know that here is another bit of Arthurian mythology about to be told. As needs be, any Grail quest must have a sub-text in morality. In The Grail Quest, we are presented with a view of God and morality that is all about choice. Nothing is written in stone, if you will forgive the Arthurian pun. To say that I enjoyed reading The Grail Quest would be an understatement." ―Amazon reviewer

★★★★★ "Who would think that the tale of King Arthur could have such a new twist to it? I don't think we will ever get tired of reading his books. Never boring, always a little humor, likable characters, and a touch of truth equals the perfect formula for my kind of book." ―Amazon reviewer

★★★★★ "Such a wonderful eye, has most of everything and more; adventure, spiritual undertones, and even dragons. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend it." ―Amazon reviewer

★★★★★ "One of my favorite books. I just loved this book... the story, the characters, the lessons... It is a different style of writing. There are layers to it... so while fun, it is also very thought provoking." ―Amazon reviewer

★★★★★ "The storyline is so clear, each chapter is so well written. This story is a unique and intriguing take on The Holy Grail. It is a amazing story that you will really enjoy. Paranormal adventure at its best!" ―Amazon reviewer
