Knight Without Ceremony

Knight Without Ceremony is an unpublished novel I have just completed and is available for representation. It is the first book in a planned duology. The book tells the story of two boys who are rivals and are training to become knights in a land similar to medieval Europe. On the surface, the novel is a fast-paced coming-of-age adventure story, a classic tale of rivals-becoming-friends. The twist is that it’s also an allegory touching on the issues of meritocracy and authoritarianism. An early draft of the book received an excellent review from BookLife, a division of Publishers Weekly, where it was selected as a semifinalist for the 2023 BookLife Prize.
