As the second world war ravages the globe and bombs fall from the sky, people all over the world begin to dream of King Arthur. The dreams spread like a fantastical plague, flooding people's sleep night after night. Whispers arise of wonders and unexplained sights - dragons in the London Underground, and strange lights over Stonehenge. Self-proclaimed prophets claim they are miracles, heralding Arthur's return at the time of Britain's greatest need.⁣\u003cbr\u003e⁣\u003cbr\u003eElaine Ambrose has never dreamed of Arthur, and she doesn't believe in miracles. A librarian at the British Museum, she wants only to protect the museum's collection from the Blitz, and is frustrated to be sent instead to catalogue a reclusive professor's private library on the coast of North Wales. But all is not as it seems. Soon Ellie must confront what she's tried to ignore: she dreams not of Arthur, but of Nimue - the Lady of the Lake. And her dreams promise not salvation, but a return to the darkness of the last days of Camelot. ⁣\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e'A dreamy, achingly beautiful tale about the power of stories.\u003ci\u003e The Witch Below the Dreaming Wood \u003c\/i\u003eimagines the magic and legend of the Arthurian age as a bright light, thrust into the darkness of World War II.
