But this is not that story. This is the story of Gwalchmai, middle son of the beautiful, infinitely evil sorceress Morgawse, and gifted student of her dark magical arts. A story of an uncertain man, doubting his ability to follow his elder brother's warrior prowess and seeking to find his own identity by bonding with his frightening and powerful mother. Disappointed in himself and despised by his father, Gwalchmai sets out on a journey that will lead him to the brink of darkness... A tale of loss, redemption, and adventure, Hawk of May brings new depth and understanding to Sir Gawain, the legend of King Arthur, and the impact of choices made—and the consequences that follow. "A welcome new light on the horizon of popular Arthurian legend...delightful...a strong sense of love and mysticism...a ripping adventure tale." —Booklist "Will appeal to those who have enjoyed Tolkien's works." —Library Journal "Compelling...splendid...vibrant...exhilarating...a novel that seduces us into accepting sorcery and sanctity in King Arthur's England." —New York Times Book Review

Their real names are Stuhldreher, Miller, Crowley and Layden. When sports writing legend Grantland Rice penned those words to describe Notre Dame's victory over Army on October 18, 1924, he helped set into motion a wave that - coupled with the subsequent photograph of Don Miller, Elmer Layden, Jim Crowley and Harry Stuhldreher - created one of the most recognizable images in American sports history.

The Four Horsemen, the Seven Mules, and the Shock Troops lead a team bound by perseverance, camaraderie and loyalty.
