Editing Guinevere (section)

===Literature===
* In the ''[[Deverry Cycle]]'' book ''[[Darkspell]]'', the character of Gweniver is a warrior priestess sworn to the Goddess of the Moon in Her Darktime, also known as She of The Sword-Struck Heart. An inspirational warleader, Gweniver is a [[berserker]] in combat.
* In [[Marion Zimmer Bradley]]'s ''[[The Mists of Avalon]]'', Gwenhwyfar is brought up by a cold, unloving father, which leaves her with a deep inferiority complex and intense agoraphobia. Failing to produce an heir and unable to be with the love of her life, Lancelot, she falls into a deep depression and – hoping for salvation – becomes an increasingly fanatical Christian. Bradley's version is notable for popularising the Welsh spelling, which many subsequent writers have adopted.
* Guinevere is a supporting character in [[Gerald Morris]]' ''The Squire's Tales''. She starts the series as King Arthur's newly-wedded queen and ends it as Sister Arthur, peacefully living in a convent after Arthur's departure.
* [[Bernard Cornwell]]'s Arthurian series of novels ''[[The Warlord Chronicles]]'' depicts Guinevere as the princess of Henis Wyren in [[North Wales]]. She is fiercely anti-Christian as a devoted follower of the [[Ancient Egyptian]] goddess [[Isis]] and has ambitions of becoming queen of [[Dumnonia]] through her marriage with Arthur, the illegitimate son of Uther Pendragon in the novels. Guinevere is the cause of a civil war in ''[[The Winter King (novel)|The Winter King]]'' and later conspires with Lancelot against Arthur in ''[[Enemy of God (novel)|Enemy of God]]'', albeit later they reconcile as she plays a vital role in the victory [[Battle of Badon|at Badon]] and eventually she and her son accompany the wounded Arthur to exile in [[Brittany]] after Camlann at the end of ''[[Excalibur: A Novel of Arthur|Excalibur]]''.
*In [[Guy Gavriel Kay]]'s ''[[Fionavar Tapestry]]'', the character of Jennifer/Guinevere is a central figure, gifted with great courage, strength, and love.
