Omschrijving

KING ARTHUR, MERLIN, SIR LANCELOT...
AN AGE-OLD TALE STILL HAS A FEW SURPRISES.

From #1 bestselling Kindle author, J.R. Rain, comes an inspiring tale of adventure, legends, dragons... and one very famous king.

Plagued by months of persistent dreams of King Arthur, Merlin, and the Holy Grail, mystery novelist James Dupree finally sets out to England to understand the meaning behind his nightly visions.

Upon arriving in Glastonbury, a locale deeply connected to stories of Camelot, Avalon and the Knights of the Round Table, James quickly discovers that not all is as it seems in this quaint little town. There's a raven-haired girl dying of a rare lung disease, knights with real swords, and perhaps strangest of all is the man who emerges from the forest... a man who just might be the greatest king Britain has ever seen.

At once inspiring and pulse-pounding, The Grail Quest is for fans of James Redfield's The Celestine Prophecy, Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist, and Dan Millman's The Way of the Peaceful Warrior. The Grail Quest is a standalone spiritual adventure, with tens of thousands sold worldwide!

"Not only is The Grail Quest a wonderful Arthurian tale and page-turning adventure, but the spiritual lessons interwoven in the storyline gave me pause to consider a new perspective on many things. Let me put it this way, I'll be 'redipping' frequently into several passages-especially the one involving James and the dragon. Powerful stuff. Imagery and prose I'll never forget! And that's on top of the impish sense of humor Rain brings to his writing."-Aiden James, bestselling author of Immortal Plague

"I finished The Grail Quest in record time! I found it both wonderfully suspenseful and rich with theological reflection. Your fresh treatment of the familiar opening scene pulled me right in. And how well you evoke Glastonbury! There is wonderful suspense here too. I'll be very interested to see where you go with the once and future king."-Robert Siegel, award-winning author of Whalesong

★★★★★ "It is always refreshing to read a book that is both well edited and a great story. The Grail Quest is just such a book. In fiction writing, it is often the goal of the writer to produce a suspension of disbelief in the reader. So what happens when it is the writer protagonist that is put in a situation where he must do what he usually must engender in others? In order to succeed along these lines, the author crafting a tale about a fictional author must dig deep and proceed slowly. J.R. Rain has done a tremendously good job of doing both. There is just enough foreshadowing, not just the title of the piece, to let you know that here is another bit of Arthurian mythology about to be told. As needs be, any Grail quest must have a sub-text in morality. In The Grail Quest, we are presented with a view of God and morality that is all about choice. Nothing is written in stone, if you will forgive the Arthurian pun. To say that I enjoyed reading The Grail Quest would be an understatement. This was one of my early Kindle purchases, and my only regret is waiting this long to read it!" ―Amazon reviewer

★★★★★ "Another great book! I don't think J.R. Rain is going to be one of those writers that gets stuck in a rut with the same formula written a 100 different ways. Every book/series has had the sense of totally new concept. This one is certainly a very fine example of it. Who would think that the tale of King Arthur could have such a new twist to it? I don't think we will ever get tired of reading his books. Never boring, always a little humor, likable characters, and a touch of truth equals the perfect formula for my kind of book." ―Amazon reviewer
