Banished from his home, with no hope of clearing his name or honour - Galahad had few choices and even fewer good ones. 

Thrown from her world into one of magic and monsters - Robin has only one chance to survive and maybe get home. 

With a tailor who is terrible with money but great at talking himself into and out of trouble and a mage who hasn't actually passed his exams yet, can this motley band get Robin home in one piece and clear Galahad's name in the process?

A Knights Gambit has been taken down while I work on finishing the second half (and making edits as my beta readers have recommended). I will bring it back again as soon as I am able.

But her village, with everyone she knows, is captured and taken to the Colorless Land. Left to their own devices, the two set out to rescue the villagers while outrunning their own pursuers.
