What to expect
Dark Age Britain. The fate of Britain once more hangs in the balance…
After years of fragile peace, the legendary warlord Arthur Pendragon is forced back into the bloody crucible of war to save Britain once more from Saxon invaders.
His greatest battle, however, is not on the field, it is a fight for his own soul.
When deep seated betrayals shatter his world, Arthur must abandon his throne and his people. He must decide whether to remain a broken mercenary in exile or return to confront a Britain ruled by his vengeful enemies and torn apart by savage armies.
Can Arthur succeed and become a legend? Will his courage, Excalibur’s might and Merlin’s cunning be enough to save Britain from the Saxon hordes hell bent on its destruction?
The grand finale of the compelling, fast-paced series from bestselling writer Peter Gibbons.
