Fortune twists in the strongest hands. This is no repeat; this is what happens next.
A man, once a legend who bound his soul to his sword as he lay dying, is now all but a boy nearing the end of his acolyte training. Stifled by life in the undersea city of Avalon, Arthur wants to fight side by side with the air-breathing Terrans, not spend his life as servant to the incorporeal sentient known as the Archive. Despite the restrictions put on him by Sanctuary, he is determined to help the surface-dwellers defeat predators whose sole purpose is to ensure their own survival, no matter the cost.
Ashira, War Maid and princess of the surface-world, is ready to sacrifice her life to defend her kin, but when she is betrayed and cast out of the life chosen for her, she must choose whether to die with honor or become one of the creatures her kinsmen fear and loathe.
Following two threads of time, C.N. Lesley’s new incarnation of the Arthurian tales of old delivers the perfect blend of science fiction and fantasy. 
Distant Worlds – Welcomes Sophie E Tallis!
Ode to winter’s coming.
And so it starts.
Summer slides into fall with drunken wasps full of rage at boredom and impending doom
Night closes in for the long haul of winter.
Where did the evenings go?
Soon, too soon the honking vees of geese will fly south on their annual pilgrimage to the sun.
Frost comes bitter at first light, glistening.
Summer flowers die.
Now we wait but not for long, with snow only a whisper away from shrouding the land.
Distant Worlds – Welcomes Katie Alford!
5 star review for Sword of Shadows from Reader’s Favorites!!!!
Book Review
Reviewed by Chris Fischer for Readers’ Favorite
Wow! I just finished reading Sword of Shadows, the newest book by author C.N. Lesley, and I can truly say that I was simply astounded by this work. As a lover of all things Arthurian, I was excited to read this story. Excited and a little apprehensive, as I’ve read so many other things that have pretty much crucified all I hold dear about stories of Arthur, Merlin and the Knights of the Round Table. And it is kind of an audacious notion to combine the medieval stories of Arthur with such a fantastic world. But C.N. Lesley is able to do it, and so well at that.
Sword of Shadows follows our hero, Arthur, and his brother Kai, as they are thrust into life on the Surface World. No longer warriors, and living as exiles, they soon encounter Merlin, the legendary and untrustworthy magician, and learn that Arthur must find the sword in order to save both the surface, Avalon, and everything that Arthur holds dear.
Sword of Shadows is actually the second in a series of books by author C.N. Lesley. I hadn’t read the first, Shadow Over Avalon, but I had absolutely no problem following this storyline. I would highly recommend this book to any lover of science fiction or fantasy, and to any reader who would love to see a new take on an Arthurian tale. I am excited now to go back and read the first book in this series, and certainly hope that C.N. Lesley is already working on Book Three!
Distant Worlds – Welcomes C.N. Lesley!
This is the fourth post of a brand new blog series, as I dip my toes into the mysterious waters of author interviews.
Having watched so many fantastic interviewers (Tricia Drammeh and her Authors to Watch, AFE Smith (see below), Katrina Jack and her New Authors section and Susan Finlay’sMeet the Author to name a few of the best – please check out their wonderful blogs), I’ve always been a little reluctant to throw my hat into the ring…but here goes!
One of my all-time favourite worldbuilding PC games, is Sid Meier’s ‘Alpha Centauri’. So, in homage to that (and a shameless rip off of BBC Radio 4’s ‘Desert Island Discs’ and AFE Smith’s brilliant blog series Barren Island Books), here is my own author interview series – Distant Worlds.

Interview with C N Lesley for the Great Grimbold Discount Weekend!
I last interviewed C N Lesley way back in March 2013, so as part of the Great Grimbold Books August promotion I thought I’d catch up with her and see what’s been happening in her life.
C N, when we last spoke Darkspire Reaches had just been released. What’s happened since then?
I think I have been going non-stop. Let’s see, three weddings, one for each daughter, three grandsons and two more books. After Darkspire Reaches came Shadow Over Avalon, an Arthurian series set in the far future that is a mix of science fiction and fantasy. The second book, Sword of Shadows came out at the end of last year also.
How was Darkspire Reaches received?
People seemed to like it and it is still selling nicely. I can only go by reviews and out of 80 on Amazon.com 25% are 4* and 50% are 5*.
Could you tell…
