BOOK ONE OF THE PERILOUS QUEST FOR LYONESSE
In the year of Our Lord 1403, as England smoulders with suppressed rebellion, young Simon Branthwaite sets sail across the Atlantic in search of the lost realm of Lyonesse. His quest will take him to Rockall, a land wreathed in legend; a land of weird beasts and wondrous happenings, of great beauties and terrible dangers.
And there begin adventures stranger than the wildest of Simon's imaginings; adventures that will change the course of his life and reshape that land for ever...
Princes of Sandastre is the first in Anthony Swithin's fantastical Lyonesse sequence, edited by Mark Sebanc.

Rockall is one of the most significant achievements in the history of fantasy worldbuilding, and William Sarjeant was a true Renaissance Man. It's wonderful to see his vast creation being given new life, and being brought to new audiences - Robert J. Sawyer, Hugo Award-winning author of The Oppenheimer Alternative
William Sarjeant's Rockall series is an impressive feat of world-building and story-telling. Mark Sebanc's thoughtful re-framing of these works makes them more accessible to a new generation of readers. I welcome this well-deserved re-emergence of Sarjeant's remarkable work - Douglas A. Anderson, editor of The Annotated Hobbit
