The Pendragon Protocol (Devices Trilogy) by Philip Purser-Hallard (1-Jul-2014) Paperback

The Circle are the modern-day successors of the Knights of the Round Table, armed with the latest military hardware and operating from a hidden fortress on the South Bank.

They protect 21st-century Britain from specific threats - criminals with Arthurian legend living inside their heads.

Jory Taylor, Knight bearing Sir Gawain's device, has battled mercenaries, serial killers, and far-right terrorist cells.

But when he is captured by Gawain's traditional enemy the Green Knight, he discovers a new side to the myths he lives by - personal and terrifyingly political.

The Pendragon Protocol is a smart, contemporary political thriller and urban fantasy, the first volume in The Devices Trilogy.
