Description: Her castle under seige by an evil knight who keeps beheading all her would-be rescuers, Lady Lynet realizes the only way to get help is to get it herself. So one night she slips away and strikes out for King Arthur's Court where she hopes to find a gallant knight to vanguish the Knight of the Red Lands and free her castle. She is soon joined on her quest by an odd dwarf named Roger who helps her find the way to Camelot. At the court, the only person who volunteers to help her is a scruffy kitchen hand named Beaumains. As the three unlikely companions return to Lynet's castle, they face surprising adventures that include encounters with the uncanny Squire Terence, his master Sir Gawan, and the majestic sorceress Morgan. And Lynet discovers that people can be more than they seem, including herself.

The Savage Damsel and the Dwarf, Gerald Morris's third Arthurian novel is a highly comic tale of hidden identities, mysterious knights, faeries and enchantments, damsels-in-distress, and true love, and continues the adventures begun in his first two books, The Squire's Tale and The Squire, His Knight, and His Lady. Each of these previous titles met with rave reviews from both kids and reviewers.
