Description

In this whimsical adventure, a clever New Englander finds himself thrust back into the legendary world of King Arthur’s court, where chivalry and superstition dominate daily life. Armed with 19th‑century know‑how and a sharp sense of irony, he navigates the absurdities of medieval politics, using his modern perspective to both bewilder and enlighten the knights and nobles around him.

The narrative blends sharp satire with heartfelt moments, as the protagonist wrestles with the paradox of love, duty, and the clash of eras. He forms an unlikely partnership with a steadfast companion, whose loyalty and innocence provide a grounding counterpoint to his grand schemes. As strange coincidences and sudden crises arise—ranging from mysterious disappearances of entire fleets to eerie, silent hillsides—the story keeps listeners on edge, wondering how far his ingenuity will carry him before the old world’s mystique overwhelms his modern sensibilities.
