About this book:
A full set of the Warlord Chronicles by Bernard Cornwell
The Winter King
The Winter King is a magnificent tale of the Dark Ages and the reality of war and political strife in a land where religion vied with magic for the souls of the people. It portrays Arthur the man rather than the legend, a military genius who, with a small band of warriors bound to him by loyalty and love, struggled to keep alive a flicker of civilization in a barbarically brutal world.
Enemy of God
Enemy of God builds on the success of The Winter King, bringing Arthur and his world to vivid life. A man battling for his vision of the future in a brutal age, dragged down by suspicions and magics of the past, surrounded by intrigue, dependent on his skill at war and genius for leadership.
Excalibur
Excalibur, like The Winter King and Enemy of God, weaves magic into a desperate realism. It tells of a world governed by oaths, but threatened by supernatural forces through which Derfel, the narrator, tries to stay true to Arthur, his Lord. It is Derfel who rescues Guinevere from her desolation, and Derfel who will stand beside Arthur at the last desperate battle on the sands of Camlann where it seems Arthur must fail unless Merlin’s last enchantment can avert the horror.
Excalibur is a story of love, war, loyalty and betrayal, peopled by princesses and bards, magicians and spearmen. It is the final volume in Bernard Cornwell’s brilliant series on Arthurian Britain.
