Uther (The Camulod Chronicles)

Uther (The Camulod Chronicles)

by JackWhyte (Author)

Synopsis

Fans of Jack Whyte's richly praised Camulod Chronicles, an authentic retelling of the Arthurian legend as it actually may have happened, have enjoyed watching the story of Camelot evolve through the eyes of Merlyn - witnessing firsthand Merlyn's role in shaping the boy who would be king. But there has been a part of the story that readers have been denied. With UTHER, Jack Whyte provides a portrait of Merlyn's shadow - his boyhood companion and closet friend, the man who would sire the King of the Britons. From the trials of boyhood to the new cloak of adult responsibility, we see Uther with fresh eyes. He will travel the length of the land, have adventures, and, through fate and tragedy, fall in love with the one woman he must not have. UTHER is a compelling love story and, like the other books in the Camulod Chronicles, a version of the legend that is more realistic than anything readers have seen before.

Media Reviews
A series that promises to provide historic plausibility to the legend of King Arthur...the best of its type in the near quarter of a century since Mary Stewart's version of these legends burst upon the publishing scene. -- The Chattanooga Times Perhaps not since the early 1970s, with Mary Stewart's The Crystal Cave and The Hollow Hills , have the Roman Empire and the Arthurian legends been intertwined with as much skill and authenticity. -- Publishers Weekly on The Skystone (starred review)
