Tordotcom Publishing is thrilled to announce the acquisition of Nicola Griffith’s novella
Spear, a glorious queer retelling of Arthurian legend, full of intoxicating adventure, dazzling magic, and true love.
Spear will be published by Tordotcom Publishing in collaboration with MCD/FSG. Griffith is represented by Stephanie Cabot at Susanna Lea Associates.
The girl knows she has a destiny before she even knows her name. She grows up in the wild, in a cave with her mother, but visions of a faraway lake come to her on the spring breeze, and when she hears a traveler speak of King Artos of Caer Leon, she knows that her future lies at his court.
