Author Description

The stories are a collection of British myths and legends told in the traditional way with a twist. Each heroine tells her story in her own way, freeing herself of centuries of misunderstanding. These feisty and inspiring women help both women and men find the archetypes and qualities of soul that have been largely missing in our culture for too many years. This series of myths includes Dindraine, the only woman in Arthurian legend to achieve the Holy Grail; an empowered Elaine who raises her son Galahad to be a hero and discovers her inner heroine in the process; magical Arianrhod's misadventure with her family and what it takes to forgive and heal; and Bloduwith's misunderstanding of love and what happens when you are given the chance to choose again, amongst other tales. In telling the stories that have been missing from our libraries, we may be surprised to experience a feeling of completeness and wholesomeness. These are deeply healing tales, and it is time to remember them.-- Publisher.
