King Arthur’s Sister in Washington’s Court
by Kim Iverson Headlee
Genre: SciFi Time Travel Fantasy



How sick are you of US politics? How doomed is the world because of who

has claimed the Oval Office throne—er, chair?

Refresh your spirit by laughing along with what Mark Twain
might have written about today’s political falderal.

“Solidly entertaining.” —Publishers Weekly

WINNER 2016 IBPA Benjamin Franklin Gold Medal for
Science Fiction & Fantasy.

Morgan le Fay, sixth-century Queen of Gore and the only major character not

killed off by Mark Twain in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s

Court, vows revenge upon the Yankee Hank Morgan. She casts a spell to

take her to 1879 Connecticut so she may waylay Sir Boss before he can

travel back in time to destroy her world. But the spell misses by 300

miles and 200 years, landing her in the Washington, D.C., of 2079,

replete with flying limousines, hovering office buildings,

virtual-reality television, and sundry other technological marvels.

Whatever is a time-displaced queen of magic and minions to do? Why, rebuild

her kingdom, of course—two kingdoms, in fact: as Campaign Boss for

the reelection of American President Malory Beckham Hinton, and as

owner of the London Knights world-champion baseball franchise.

Written as though by the old master himself, King Arthur’s Sister in

Washington’s Court by Mark Twain as channeled by Kim Iverson

Headlee offers laughs, love, and a candid look at American society,

popular culture, politics, baseball… and the human heart.

Mark Twain began work on A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court in

1879—the same year the Yankee Hank Morgan departed for his sojourn

in sixth-century Britain. The first edition was published in 1889 and

features more than 200 illustrations by the man who later would

become founder of the Boy Scouts of America, Daniel Carter Beard.

These illustrations are now in the public domain, and a handful have

been incorporated into King Arthur’s Sister in Washington’s Court as

an artistic homage to this classic edition of the first time travel

story in all literature.
