Search - The White Raven

The story of Tristan and Iseult retold in a romantic 6th century Celtic setting. If you liked Marion Zimmer Bradley's classic, The Mists of Avalon, you'll love this one, too.

A magical new telling of a story as old as love itself

"In writing this book, my intention has been not only to place the Tristan and Iseult legend in the context of the history of the sixth century, but also to attempt to harmonize my interpretation (wherever possible) with those of the major works of fantasy which have dealt with this period already. In particular I have attempted to reconcile genealogies and placenames with those used by others, mainly Rosemary Sutcliff in her classic series of books on Roman Britain, especially Sword at Sunset, Marion Zimmer Bradley in The Mists of Avalon, and Poul and Karen Anderson in the King of Ys."

Paxon recreates a Celtic world to tell the timeless legend of Tristan and Iseult.
A rich, beautifully realized story.
