Will rushes north to release his betrothed from their engagement, but on the way he is beset by all manner of horrors -- a man-eating troll, carnivorous mermaids, a magic-working dragon . . . and something far worse: an evil unlike anything Will ever imagined.\n \nKnight's Wyrd is an award-winning gem that's perfect for revival as a Tor Essential in a world in which books like Hild and Spear, and films like The Green Knight, compel praise and attention - a medieval fantasy with the authentic lived-in strangeness of the real Middle Ages. It was originally published by a pair of YA imprints, but it works equally well as an adult read.\n\nWith an introduction written for this edition by Sherwood Smith.","brand":"Macmillan Publishers New Zealand Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48242750554348,"sku":"9781250877703","price":37.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781250877703-knight-s-wyrd-1.jpg?v=1787975872"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/collections\/james-d-macdonald.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
