Lancelot's Disciple
Quest on the Ancient Silk Road for Self-Awareness and Enlightenment
Description:... Compelling sequel to Lancelot’s Grail in which Sir Lancelot became a hermit-monk, found the Holy Grail, and trained siblings Frith and Alura as his disciples.
When Lancelot’s spirit consecrates Alura, Frith is left wondering why the same didn’t happen to him. Reluctantly, he leaves the Christian abbey he has always called home to accompany Jacob, a merchant sent by his father to take him take on the ancient Silk Road.
With four knights for protection, the men caravan to Samarkand, the Central Asian capital of the silk trade. There they meet the Sultan, a wealthy collector of oriental holy men.
Frith is invited to study at the Sultan’s newly formed mystery school, where he is tutored by a Taoist, a Buddhist, and a Hindu Swami. Overwhelmed by metaphysical experiences he receives in the Sultan’s school, Frith becomes nearly catatonic during the journey home. Once back in Britain, he must sort out his confusion, attain the Holy Grail, and reconnect with his saintly sister waiting at the abbey.
