And so, brimming with magic and eager to test her strength, she breaks her covenant with her mother and, with a broken hunting spear and mended armour, rides on a bony gelding to Caer Leon. On her adventures she will meet great knights and steal the hearts of beautiful women. She will fight warriors and sorcerers. And she will find her love, and the lake, and her fate. Nebula and Lambda Award-winning author Nicola Griffith returns with Spear, a glorious queer retelling of Arthurian legend, full of dazzling magic and intoxicating adventure"--

"On a top secret mission, top spy Yelena Belova discovers something very familiar about her next target. Yelena is used to the brutal, cutthroat world of the Red Room -- the elite, mysterious spy-training facility that raised her. But when her handlers send her on a top secret mission to the US -- what they call "the American Outpost" -- she finds barely capable girls who can't even take a punch. Yelena doesn't make many friends, but the freedom Americans enjoy gives her a glimpse of what her life could be -- if she could ever escape the Red Room. Then her mission goes terribly wrong. Now she's on the run with an orphaned eight-year-old. It's a deadly road trip of self-discovery, as Yelena outruns her past and struggles to save a girl who reminds Yelena of her younger self -- a girl whose shocking origin ties her fate inextricably to Yelena's."--
