Worship




A love triangle set in the era of the Knights of the Round Table, from the bestselling author of IN MEMORIAM

Irish princess Isode is certain she will marry a king worthy of her, and she believes that king might just be Sir Palomides – if only he would convert to Christianity. Her plans, however, are shattered when a mysterious knight named Tristram defeats her beloved in a tournament. Solitary, handsome, and fast becoming the best knight of all, Tristram has no interest in marrying Isode. He only wanted to win approval – worship – from his idol, Palomides, and a seat with the knights of the Round Table. But after the tournament, Tristram and Isode’s fates are tied – whether they like it or not.

As civil war brews in Camelot, Isode tries to regain control of her once glittering future. Amid turmoil and magic, Tristram and Isode set off on a perilous voyage and begin to see each other in a new light. What if their future holds more than either of them could ever imagine?

Dazzlingly inventive and endlessly surprising, WORSHIP is a stunning novel about faith and love in the face of uncertainty – of how far we might go, and what we’re willing to lose, for the ones we love.

Praise for Worship

Alice Winn builds a brilliant, beguiling world from the materials of medieval chivalry. Her book is witty and surprising at every turn, and utterly involving. Poised between the fifteenth and twenty-first centuries, Winn’s prose captures the timelessness of stories of honour and chivalry, love and tragedy

Antony Bale, author of A TRAVEL GUIDE TO THE MIDDLE AGES

I laughed, I cried, was bowled over and then re-thought every friendship I ever had. WORSHIP is a dazzlingly witty punch to the gut, an Arthurian answer to love in modern times. Winn is a once-in-a-lifetime talent and WORSHIP is unlike anything you’ve ever read

Yael van der Wouden, author of THE SAFEKEEP

In WORSHIP, Alice Winn has done something very special: created a vision of the medieval world that is both authentic and utterly her own. Funny, deliciously weird and - in the end - deeply moving, this book is a golden addition to the legend of King Arthur

Dan Jones

Taking you captive from the first sentence, Alice Winn’s WORSHIP never lets go in this tumultuous reimagining of Arthurian legend. Her knights and princesses are gloriously, imperfectly human, as likely to be undone by their own feelings as by any enemy. Completely different in tone, content and style from her debut, IN MEMORIAM, WORSHIP is destined to become another instant classic in a genre all its own

Hannah Rothschild, author of MASTERPIECE
