Excalibur (Warlord Chronicles Series #3)

EXCALIBUR, the third and final book in Mr. Cornwell's WARLORD CHRONICLES, like its predecessors weaves the magic and desperation of King Arthur's era into immediately convincing realism. Appropriately, EXCALIBUR is the story of Arthur's consolidation of power, also of the endless conspiracies that nearly brought him down. Bernard Cornwell was born in London and raised in Essex, but now lives in America with his wife. He is the author of the hugely successful Sharpe series, set during the Peninsular War, as well as the STARBUCK series, set during the American Civil War.

"Cornwell's attention to historical detail, his penchant for lively storytelling, and his vivid characters are coupled with splendid, white-hot storytelling." (Kirkus Reviews)
