Synopsis
With The Winter King, the first volume of his magnificent Warlord Chronicles, Bernard Cornwell turns to the story he was born to write: the mythic saga of King Arthur. Now a major television show. The tale begins in Dark Age Britain, 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 of honor, loyalty, and amazing valor; a man who loves Guinevere more passionately than he should; a man whose life is at once tragic and triumphant. As Arthur fights to keep a flicker of civilization alive in a barbaric world, Bernard Cornwell makes a familiar tale into a legend all over again., It takes a remarkable writer to make an old story as fresh and compelling as the first time we heard it. With The Winter King, the first volume of his magnificent Warlord Chronicles, Bernard Cornwell finally turns to the story he was born to write: the mythic saga of King Arthur.

    Overall very happy with the product. My ONLY complaint is there are visible lines all throughout the concert. Very annoying and distracting. I don’t blame the seller though. Best guess this is the result of converting data recorded in 1985 to DVD. Seller is probably unaware of the issue. I would offer more than 5 stars if I could regarding the rest of the transaction. Condition of the packaging is good, offered at a fair price and was shipped right away. Would buy from this seller again.

  • Bernard Cornwell, he is the best!

    As usual, his story telling is second to none with a mix of historical settings and "maybe" happenings. One of THE very best authors of our time.
