Guinevere: The Dragon Ring

About Guinevere: The Dragon Ring:

As a child Gwen Fry, named by her archaeologist father after legendary Queen Guinevere, meets the enigmatic Fancy Dress Man who gives her a golden bracelet carved in the form of a dragon. When her father dies, she comes to Glastonbury with her boyfriend Nathan to scatter his ashes. She climbs the Tor alone early on a Sunday morning and finds a gold ring lying on the floor of the old church tower on its summit.

Picking up the ring, she is transported back to the Dark Ages where at first she can hardly believe what has happened. The church tower has gone, replaced by a circle of standing stones. Found by some distinctly hostile villagers on what is now (then) the marsh and water surrounded island of Ynys Witrin, she is taken to the abbot. He sends her by secret paths through the marshes, as a prisoner to Din Cadan, the stronghold of the local ruler. It is South Cadbury Castle, which legend has long said was the original King Arthur’s Camelot. There she meets Merlin – her Fancy Dress Man – who tells her it is her destiny to marry Arthur and help him become the king of legend.

Not unnaturally Gwen isn’t at all keen on this, being a free thinking twenty-first-century girl. She plots to return to Glastonbury where she hopes the ring will help her return to her own time. But before she can put this plan into operation, Arthur returns from leading his war band against Saxon raiders. He’s accompanied by his older half brother Cei, son of Gorlois of Tintagel. There’s no denying Gwen finds Arthur attractive, but her mind is made up – nothing will induce her to stay in the Dark Ages.

A messenger, Theodoric the Goth, who is Arthur’s friend, arrives from Viroconium (Wroxeter) with news that Arthur’s father, Uthyr Pendragon, king of Powys and Dumnonia and High King of all Britain, is dying. Arthur decides to ride north up the ancient Fosse Way, taking Gwen with him. To Gwen’s horror, they leave Glastonbury and her only hope of escape far behind them, and the prospect of having to marry her prince looms ever nearer.
