SYNOPSIS |
| Arthur has survived, but his marriage to Guinevere is in ruins and the Saxons see a chance to destroy him and the Britons altogether.
Bernard Cornwell tells the story of that war, of its climax at the dreadful battle of Mount Badon, of Arthur's glory, and of the years that follow when he is at last free to make his dreams come true. It tells of a broken love remade, but also of enemies more subtle than any Saxon spearman. Merlin and Nirnue still dream of summoning the Gods to Britain, and they now possess the Thirteen Treasures of Britain that will command those Gods. When Merlin's first attempt fails, Nirnue takes up the cause and brings a ruthless intensity to her ambitions. Mordred, the despised King, finds his own power, and he allies himself with Nimue in an attempt to bring destruction on Arthur.
