<p>Ten tales of mediaeval England, conjuring an age when devils walked among the faithful, saints worked miracles in the green shires, and knights rode out for the Holy Land. A wandering pilgrim charms a nunnery with his cithern - until the bells reveal his fiery nature. A leper woman's love survives a crusade. Witches gather at lonely crossroads. A mason takes terrible vengeance for his daughter's ruin. A castle falls amid prophecy and treachery. Saints die in the odor of sanctity, and the Evil One steals the Pyx from the very altar.</p> <p>Written in a rich, pseudo-archaic English that recalls Chaucer and the <i>Gesta Romanorum</i>, these tales of sin, miracle, and the supernatural evoke a vivid world where the line between faith and damnation is forever blurred, and where the road home is never quite the road one set out upon.</p>
