Best Selling Author Comes Under Homophobic Attack

Sarah Luddington, bestselling author of the controversial Knights of Camelot Series, offered to donate the royalties from a special edition of her most popular novel, Lancelot and The Wolf, to Gay Charity Stonewall in response to a barrage of homophobic reviews on Amazon.

The Knights of Camelot series of books feature a number of gay and bisexual relationships and have caused outrage in some areas, particularly on Amazon US where there seems to be a concerted attack against the book’s gay content.
“Since this book took off I have received a huge amount of homophobic responses and some of it very unpleasant,” Sarah said. "People seemed outraged that I could suggest that King Arthur and Lancelot were in a gay relationship, yet it’s a definite undercurrent in the stories when one really studies some of the source material of Mallory or Chrétien de Troyes.”
The Knights of Camelot series is published by Mirador Publishing.

Liz Spear recently conducted a highly successful book signing event at Waterstones. She sold a good number of books on the day and using the Scratch Card System generated excellent follow up interest. The local Waterstones manager was so pleased with the results of the event that she is recommending Liz on to other branches.

Mirador Publishing Successes

We at Mirador Publishing are very proud of our authors. Here are some of our recent successes:


A huge well done to Keith Scrivener who managed to secure a double page spread in his local newspaper, The East Anglian Daily Times. We know this was the outcome of much hard work and persistence but the results are already coming through. He tells us they wouldn’t look at this until he’d published his follow-up novel. Over the last year Keith has also had great success in securing book signings, even managing to crack the notoriously difficult WH Smiths.

Mirador’s Radio Star, Catherine Green, strikes again. Some are local radio broadcasts, others are live online interviews connected with paranormal romance sites and women’s literary sites. These have made a big impact on the American market who are far more active in this area than this side of the pond. Well done.

 Steve Norris—Our man from the North, has built some wonderful contacts and helped quite a few of us over the months with his cunning plans. The latest involves joining the Scarborough Literary Festival, where he will be talking alongside S.J. Bolton.
