A spellbinding and subversive queer recasting of Arthurian myth by the legendary author of Hild

The girl knows she has a destiny before she even knows her name. She grows up in the wild, in a cave with her mother, but visions of a faraway lake come to her on the spring breeze, and when she hears a traveler speak of Artos, king of Caer Leon, she knows that her future lies at his court.

And so, brimming with magic and eager to test her strength, she breaks her covenant with her mother and, with a broken hunting spear and mended armour, rides on a bony gelding to Caer Leon. On her adventures, she will meet great knights and steal the hearts of beautiful women. She will fight warriors and sorcerers. And she will find her love, and the lake, and her fate.

Nebula and Lambda Award-winning author Nicola Griffith returns with Spear, a glorious queer retelling of Arthurian legend, full of dazzling magic and intoxicating adventure.

A Macmillan Audio production from Tor.com.

A joy to read, a gift—pure magic: all the things we want from Arthur and his knights. And the language? Like cold, clear, water. A book to treasure for my life.

I had a hard time reading and comprehending this on my own, very grateful for the audio, it definitely helped with the pronunciation and writing style. The story was pretty good though, still felt original coming from a different perspective. I will say the narration makes this book for me. The author delivers it as she wants it to be read and you can hear it in her performance. Well done.

Good!

Spear feels mythical with a sprinkles of realism here and there. The writing is amazingly poetic, which shines especially when protagonist preforms great feats or enter realms of magic. It’s a great story of discovery and knowing, with a simple plot.
And the author is quite talented when narrating it. They brought their own sensory and musical language to life.

I thoroughly enjoyed this work. The author did a great job narrating their work. I love the queer representation, especially that there is no explanation - the main character just *is*

I loved this book.
I loved listening to the author’s voice tell the story found within.
This book took me on my morning and evening commutes to a place of old, with a tale of love and discovery.
The language of the story is so marvelous, it’s poetic and brings you in to that world like nothing else I have listened to before.
This is a book of familiar and yet not familiar heroes and heroines seen in a new and refreshing light.
I highly recommend this book.

Like all Griffith’s books, this was absolutely stellar. The lilt of the language was transporting, and the characterization brilliant.

Beautiful, lyrical, absolutely perfect.
