Publisher Description
Bernard Cornwell's internationally bestselling King Arthur Trilogy tells the mythic saga of King Arthur and is the work of a magnificent storyteller at the height of his powers.
THE WINTER KING
The novel is set in Dark Age Britain in a land where Arthur has been banished and Merlin has disappeared, where a child-king sits unprotected on the throne, where religion vies with magic for the souls of the people. It is to this desperate land that Arthur returns, a man at once utterly human and truly heroic; a man who loves Guinevere more passionately than he should; a man whose life is at once tragic and triumphant.
ENEMY OF GOD
Having defeated the last holdouts of civil war in southern Britain, Arthur has secured Mordred's throne. But he must still face raging conflicts between the old ways and the new, as well as foes more powerful and more dangerous--because they pose as friends.
EXCALIBUR
The unforgettable tale of Arthur's final struggles against the Saxons and his last attempts to triumph over a ruined marriage and ravaged dreams as forces both earthly and unearthly threaten everything Arthur stands for. Peopled by princesses and bards, by warriors and magicians, Excalibur is the story of love, war, loyalty, and betrayal.
Customer Reviews
Awesome book!
This was the best book I’ve read in a long while. And I am a voracious reader. Extremely well-written & a superb storyline. I couldn’t read fast enough! It was basically an all night read. You become invested in all of the characters ~ good and bad. I was really sad when I came to the end. I had trouble with pronunciation of the Welsh words, but I didn’t let that stop me ~ or slow me down. I really enjoyed it to the end. The best King Arthur story I’ve ever read. This guy is a great writer. I’m looking for more by him. Awesome.
Excellent
Loved it!
A story for all time
Hypnotic and satisfying .... every piece of the puzzle is fitted precisely into place before the last word of the final scene. Not since Mary Stewart has anyone told this story as beautifully.
