Perilous times

a novel
Thomas D Lee
Book - 2023

"An immortal Knight of the Round Table faces his greatest challenge yet-saving the politically polarized, rapidly warming world from itself. Being reborn as an immortal defender of the realm gets awfully damn tiring over the years-or at least that's what Sir Kay's thinking as he claws his way up from beneath the earth, yet again. Kay fought at Hastings, and at Waterloo, and in both World Wars. After a thousand years, he thought he was used to dealing with a crisis. But now he finds himself in a strange new world where oceans have risen, armies have been privatized, and half of Britain's been sold to the Chinese. The dragon that's running amok, that he can handle. The rest? He's not so sure. Luckily, Excalibur lies within reach--and Kay's starting to suspect that the hero fit to carry it is close at hand"-- Provided by publisher.
