Description
The legendary myths of Ancient Greece and Arthurian Britain are brought together in the search for a prized relic of limitless power born from the love and grief of the goddess Pallas Athena herself. The descendants of the Sacred Band of Thebes - one hundred and fifty male lovers and the bravest of warriors - have sworn an oath to defend the relic and protect it from falling into the wrong hands...an honour shared by Six of the direct descendants of King Arthur's Round Table of Knights. Challenge comes from the Knights' own former brethren, the Six that believe in an alternative vision of control and order for the world. Both factions have been at war over the centuries...and now comes the opportunity for each to realise their destinies.

Person
James MacTavish brings his love of mythology and history together in gripping short stories that transport the reader from present day events to the antiquities of Ancient Greece and Arthurian legend. Having been inspired by several works focusing on what it is to be a gay man in the 21st Century - the journey of coming out, finding your place and living life to the full - MacTavish challenges the cultural stereotypes of this genre and instead presents his audience with 'heroes'. Characters that can inspire and lead, not just be accepted. The imaginative stories are deeply researched with creative flair, focusing on the themes of loyalty, duty and the love of family. As a keen competitive swimmer and open water enthusiast, expect references to an individual's strength and discipline whist championing the notion that sometimes, to be different is to be better.
