Official synopsis Publisher

An undeniably fierce, unforgettably funny, unapologetically queer feminist romp through the England of medieval legend. Bestselling and acclaimed authors Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner bring readers along on an epic quest for valor, freedom, and, above all, love. A Knight’s Tale meets the Lady Jane series, with a dash of The Great!

Gwen is sick of hiding–hiding the fact that she’s taken over her father’s blacksmithing duties, hiding her attraction to girls, hiding her yearning for glory as a knight.

Meanwhile, Lady Isobelle of Avington, queen bee of the castle, has never once considered hiding who she is–until now. She’s been chosen as the grand prize in the Tournament of Dragonslayers, to be given to whichever knight can claim her hand. And for the first time in her life, she can’t talk her way out of trouble.

When Isobelle discovers Gwen’s knightly ambitions, they hatch a scheme together–Gwen will joust in the tournament, disguised as Sir Gawain. Winning means freedom for Isobelle, and glory for Gwen. Losing means… well, let’s not go there.

One thing’s for sure: Falling in love was never the plan.

But the best laid plans…are often trampled all over by dragons.

“A sapphic delight, full of jousts, jaunts, and courtly love. Lady’s Knight sparkles with wit and charm and has lady knights to swoon over. Kaufman and Spooner will leave you breathless.” –C. S. Pacat, New York Times bestselling author of Dark Rise

“Kaufman and Spooner are auto-buy authors for me, always guaranteed to get my heart pumping with their page-turning romance and high-stakes adventure.” –New York Times bestselling author Susan Dennard

“There are a lot of damsels in Lady’s Knight, but none of them need a man to fix their problems. (Men seem to be the source of the problems, in fact.) Wholesome, heartfelt, and more fun than cheesecake on a stick, Kaufman and Spooner’s latest book is all about women’s work. You know, jousting, dragonslaying, and saving the kingdom–all while looking fabulous.” –Jodi Meadows, coauthor of the New York Times bestselling novels My Lady Jane and My Plain Jane

“Clever, funny, thrilling, and romantic–Lady’s Knight will inspire readers to take up their swords to fight dragons and the patriarchy. Perfect for fans of A Knight’s Tale and anyone who loves a romantasy with wit, charm, and the occasional comedic fourth wall break.” –F. T. Lukens, New York Times bestselling author of So This Is Ever After

“You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll be ready to fight any dragon after reading this delightful tale full of swoony romance, heart-racing action, and the very best banter in the realm!” –Beth Revis, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Night of the Witch

“Writing that is above all else marvelously warm and at the same time witty, adventure and romance that will sweep you off your feet–a double sweep, and a triumph!” –Sarah Rees Brennan, #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Long Live Evil

“Sparkles with wit and romance! So many quotable lines. Not to mention the sexiest gown-lacing scene in modern literature. Like its characters, Lady’s Knight is endlessly clever and resourceful.” –Ellen Kushner, award-winning author of Swordspoint
