Críticas

"I read this first few pages and was hooked. Some time ago I promised myself that I would give no more blurbs unless i found a quite extraordinary book, one that I wishes had my own name on it. This is such a book. I recommend "The Forever King" wholeheartedly."--Morgan Llywelyn "A rousing finale....Imaginative, creative, and downright hilarious as the Knights cope with twentieth-century reality, this exciting tale is snazzy indeed."--"Romantic Times" "The narrative interweaves present-day events and flashbacks to Camelot, recasting many Arthurian elements into a mythology that appears new while managing to employ all the classic touchstones. With its high-minded themes and echoes of the metaphysical thrillers of Charles Williams, this satisfying sequel lives up to its popular predecessor."--"Publishers Weekly"

Reseña del editor

When a teenage girl returns the Holy Grail to Arthur, the reincarnation of Camelot's High King, she joins him on a perilous quest - strange and perilous quest - strange because of the effects of Merlin's magic on the 20th century, and perilous because of a malevolent assassin who knows too much about the Grail and the young King. Arthur must make an impossible choice: to save the life of one he has come to love, he must shatter the fabled sword Excalibur - but breaking the sword will destroy Camelot's power and mark the failure of Arthur's mission to restore the Round Table.
