The third novel in the Warlord Trilogy, Excalibur: A Novel of Arthur immerses the reader in the Britain of the Dark Ages. Merlin, the greatest of the Druids, believes that the ancient gods are deserting Britain, and that the invading Saxons can't be defeated without the help of the gods. Mordred reigns with a brutal hand, and Arthur sees his dreams of peace between the British Kingdoms evaporate. At the heart of Excalibur–what makes the Arthurian legends eternally fascinating–is the larger-than-life company of heroes, from Sagramor the warrior to Taliesin the bard, Guinevere, Lancelot, and Arturus Rex himself. Cornwell treats them all with warmth and dignity, revealing their human qualities without unnecessarily reinventing them. This three-part saga of magic and bloodshed will grip readers from the first page of The Winter King, through Enemy of God, to the last page of Excalibur.
Read by Edmund Dehn.
