T. H. Whiteâ€™s masterful retelling of the saga of King Arthur is a fantasy classic as legendary as Excalibur and Camelot, and a poignant story of adventure, romance, and magic that has enchanted readers for generations.
Â
Once upon a time, a young boy called â€œWartâ€ was tutored by a magician named Merlyn in preparation for a future he couldnâ€™t possibly imagine. A future in which he would ally himself with the greatest knights, love a legendary queen and unite a country dedicated to chivalrous values. A future that would see him crowned and known for all time as Arthur, King of the Britons.
Â
During Arthurâ€™s reign, the kingdom of Camelot was founded to cast enlightenment on the Dark Ages, while the knights of the Round Table embarked on many a noble quest. But Merlyn foresaw the treachery that awaited his liege: the forbidden love between Queen Guenever and Lancelot, the wicked plots of Arthurâ€™s half-sister Morgause and the hatred she fostered in Mordred that would bring an end to the kingâ€™s dreams for Britainâ€”and to the king himself.

â€œ[The Once and Future King] mingles wisdom, wonderful, laugh-out-loud humor and deep sorrowâ€”while telling one of the great tales of the Western world.â€â€”Guy Gavriel Kay
