“A cunningly wrought retelling of the Arthurian myth,
set amongst the street gangs of Indianapolis.”
Ben Aaronovitch, author of the Rivers of London series
The Wire meets Excalibur in this stunning urban fantasy.
From the drug gangs of downtown Indianapolis, the one true king will arise.
The King Arthur myth is dramatically retold through the eyes of street hustler King, as he tries to unite the crack dealers, gangbangers and the monsters lurking within them to do the right thing.

Praise and Reviews for the Knights of Breton Court Series:
“Maurice Broaddus has an uncanny ability to capture the flavor of the streets. This is a wild, imaginative journey grounded in a gritty reality so compelling that you’ll swear these characters must live in your own city. Put this on your must-read list!”
– Brandon Massey, award-winning author of Cornered and Don’t Ever Tell
“I maintain that this is one of the most original and compelling modern fantasy series I’ve read.”
– Nicholas Kaufmann’s Journal
“Maurice Broaddus’ writing creates a dangerous and authentic mood. The language is fierce and evokes the gritty realism of life on the streets. When the supernatural elements are introduced, they drift through the novel like smoke, leaving the reader gradually horrified as the end game is reached… For some, King Maker is going to be the best read of 2010.”
– FantasyLiterature.com
“[King Maker] is a triumph, I can honestly say that this novel has made me think about the world and people around me more than any other book has for a long time. Maurice Broaddus has created a masterpiece of original, compelling and thought provoking drama, irresistible and unforgettable.”
– SFBook.com
“King’s Justice performs the impossible feat of improving on it’s predecessor, it’s simply an incredible work of compelling fiction and the closest most of us will ever get (if we are lucky) to living in a getto, pure genius.”
– SFBook.com
