Product Description
THE OBSERVER
"The Arthurian legends... always bear a fresh telling, especially from such a well-versed historical novelist as Massie... a cracking story."
Review
"If you have only a dim recollection of the Arthur legends, this is an opportunity to rediscover their variety. And Massie entertainingly adds his own, deliberately anachronistic, original ingredients." (SALLEY VICKERS, THE TIMES )
"The Arthurian legends... always bear a fresh telling, especially from such a well-versed historical novelist as Massie... a cracking story." (THE OBSERVER )
"I hope Massie doesn't stop at a mere trilogy. With entertainment as high-wrought and glittering as this, even a dodecalogy would be too short." (DAILY TELEGRAPH )
"a lively and colourful yarn." (SUNDAY TELEGRAPH )
"A timely examination of the power and pitfalls of myth in political life." (SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY )
"This novel simply adds to my admiration for this absurdly underrated author." (GLASGOW HERALD )
"Well-handled" (TLS )
"It is in the mists of sinister suggestion that Massie's skill truly glitters... you are held by the throat from beginning to end." (INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY )
