AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The second part in an epic trilogy about the legend of King Arthur, sure to appeal to fans of Conn Iggulden and George R. R. Martin.

The legend of King Arthur lives on...

'Crippled with hunger and weary to the point of collapse, Gareth Minor enters the fortress of Arden to deliver the dire news that Lord Arthur, the Last Dragon, has been captured by barbarians and taken to the frozen north. With Father Lorcan and Germanus by his side, Gareth embarks on a quest to rescue his master.

'Meanwhile, in the Land of the Denes, Arthur and his fellow prisoners enrage the Dene King when they are presented at court. Fleeing for their lives, Stormbringer, their captor turned protector, leads them to safety. But the northern shores are under threat of invasion and Stormbringer and Arthur unite in battle, knowing few will survive...' (Publication summary)

Notes

  • Dedication:

    This book is dedicated to my two sons, Damian Michael Hume and Brendan Niels Hume.

    I take inordinate pride in both of these young men who have lived their lives with all the best qualities that I have recognised in the Arthuriad such as courage, generosity, patriotism, love of kin and the nobility of work.

    I wish them love, happiness and a long life but, most of all, I wish them contentment.

    M.K. Hume
