Descriere

n nThis first novel in Jack Whyte's riveting Arthurian series tells how the story of Camelot may have actually come to be. n nWe all know the story--how Arthur pulled the sword from the stone and how Camelot came to be. n nBut how did it really happen? n nThe Roman citizens of Britain faced a deadly choice: leave to live in a corrupt Roman world, or stay amidst the violence of the warring factions of Picts, Celts, and invading Saxons. n nFor Publius Varrus and Caius Britannicus, there is only one answer. They will stay, try to preserve the best of Roman life, and create a new culture from the wreckage. n nIn doing so, they will plant the seeds of a legend. For these two men are Arthur's great-grandfathers and their actions will shape a nation...and forge the sword known as Excalibur.n
