Join Ywain, a weary knight disillusioned by his mundane administrative responsibilities, as he abandons his estate to his younger brother in search of adventure and self-discovery. On a mystical pilgrimage guided by a will-o-the-wisp that resembles a child, Ywains journey leads him to the enchanting city of Paladore, where he encounters Aithne, a captivating half-fae enchantress. This allegorical fantasy by Sir Henry Newbolt, originally published in hardback in Britain in 1914 and later in the United States, was revitalized in 1975 as the fifth installment of the esteemed Newcastle Forgotten Fantasy Library. - Summary by Phil Benson, adapted from Wikipedia
