Merlyn Britannicus and Uther Pendragon - the Silver Bear and the Red Dragon - are the leaders of the Colony, lifeblood to the community from which will come the fabled Camulod.

But soon their tranquillity is in ruins, Uther lies dead from treachery, and all that is left of the dream is the orphaned babe Arthur. Heir to the Colony of Camulod, born with Roman heritage as well as the blood of the Hibernians and the Celts, Arthur is the living incarnation of the sacred dream of his ancestors: independent survival in Britain amidst the ruins of the Roman Empire.

When Arthur is adopted by Merlyn Britannicus, an enormous responsibility is placed on Merlyn's shoulders. Now he must prepare young Arthur to unify the clans of Britain and guard the mighty sword Excalibur.

And, above all, Merlyn must see that Arthur survives to achieve the rest of his ancestors' dreams, in spite of the deadly threats rumbling from the Saxon Shore.

This is great story, well narrated, somewhat long winded at times, but an easy listen. Very enjoyable series, will be one I listen to more than once.

The series is very good. Detailed, almost to a fault. I say “almost” because many may not have the patience for such a very detailed book. But for me, it’s not a problem, especially since it is the audiobook I’m listening to. With that said, this series could make for a great streaming series that could rival Game of Thrones.

I am invested…

Listened to this 10+times.and something always niggled at me but I couldn't place it till just now. They say Arthur has cays nose and eyes.. How were they related again so he could inherit those traits?

I like it

When I first read these books a decade ago, I thought they were at the top of their game. They're still great for many reasons, but one thing I missed the first time around is the shear amount of exposition. Much of it is necessary, but most not necessarily so. It would be easy to argue that the primary narrative and story of the books are told in exposition. So if this author's previous works weren't enjoyed by you or you thought other works had too much exposition (like, say Pillars of the Earth) you might be wary. But, what the author does to make up for the amount of exposition is posit an entertainingly plausible story of how King Arthur stepped out of the world left by the fall of Rome. And I still enjoyed that story the second time around.

I have read this entire series and have enjoyed the journey. This historical depiction of the story of King Arthur is informative and well researched. Thank you, Mr. Whyte!

Exceptional adventure!
