Product Description
Since the first volume in his magnificent Warlord Chronicles, The Winter King, now the basis for the British TV show, Bernard Cornwell established himself as the storyteller who could reinvent the legend of King Arthur for our time.In Enemy of God, Cornwell's magical re-creation continues. Having defeated the last holdouts of civil war in southern Britain, Arthur has secured Mordred's throne. But he must still face raging conflicts between the old ways and the new, as well as foes more powerful and more dangerous--because they pose as friends. Brilliantly written and peopled with the familiar faces of legend along with new ones, Enemy of God is an immensely powerful continuation of a modern classic.
Customer Reviews
I read Enemy of God by Bernard Cornwell, and I absolutely loved it! Cornwell is a master storyteller, and I was gripped from beginning to end. What I found most fascinating is how he presents a more "realistic" take on the Arthurian legend, portraying what might have truly happened if Arthur had existed.The novel includes familiar figures and elements from the legend—Merlin, Excalibur, the Round Table oath, Camelot, Lancelot, Tristan, and the ongoing struggle against the Saxons. Arthur himself is depicted as a just leader, committed to Britain’s future. However, what sets this book apart is its grounded and plausible approach, blending historical realism with subtle touches of druid magic and British mysticism.An outstanding read for anyone who enjoys historical fiction or a fresh perspective on the Arthurian myths!
