Sam Davey (1963- ) spends a lot of her time living in her head, which is a strange but quite comforting place to be. The rest of the time is divided between work and play. Formerly a Whitehall Civil Servant, Sam now works for the Royal Opera House in London's Covent Garden, She lives by the sea with her husband and intermittently present children. Sam's new novel, The Chosen Queen - the first book in the Pendragon Prophecies - is a feminist re-telling of the origins of the Camelot Legends, which did not start with a sword in a stone, but with a tangled web of magic, murder and deception. The story started many years ago, when Sam travelled to the distant castle of Tintagel in Cornwall, and began to think about what it would have been like to have been deceived, double-crossed and held prisoner within those walls. Angels of Islington, Sam’s first novel, uses fantasy and black humour to explore the wide ranging philosophical and theological issues relating to free-will, dualism, the nature of divinity and the essence of humanity. Sam studied philosophy and politics at the University of Durham and regards herself as religiously agnostic – but deeply interested in the power of belief to motivate acts of both perfect kindness and the most appalling cruelty.
