The Bright Sword Summary

The Bright Sword by Lev Grossman

'For anyone whos ever craved a seat at the Round Table. Utterly enchanting.'
Rebecca Yarros, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Fourth Wing
_______________________________________________________________


No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of the Magicians trilogy returns with a triumphant reimagining of the King Arthur legend for the new millennium.

When gifted young knight Collum arrives at Camelot to compete for a place on the Round Table, he quickly discovers that hes too late:The king died two weeks ago at the Battle of Camlann, and only a handful of the knights of the Round Table are left.

And the survivors arent the heroes of legend either, like Lancelot or Gawain. Theyre the oddballs of the Round Table, like Sir Palomides, the Saracen Knight, and Sir Dagonet, Arthurs fool, who was knighted as a joke. Theyre joined by Nimue, who was Merlins apprentice until she turned on him and buried him under a hill.

But its up to them to rebuild Camelot in a world that has lost its balance, even as God abandons Britain and the fairies and old gods are returning, led by Morgan le Fay. They must reclaim Excalibur and make this ruined world whole again.

But first theyll have to solve the mystery of why the lonely, brilliant King Arthur fell.

The first major Arthurian epic of the new millennium, The Bright Sword is a story about imperfect men and women, full of strength and pain, who are looking for a way to reforge a broken land in spite of being broken themselves.

The Bright Sword Reviews

If you love King Arthur as much as I do, you'll love Lev Grossman's THE BRIGHT SWORD, a fresh and engrossing take on the Matter of Britain featuring a colourful cast of Round Table knights who don't often get as much story time as they deserve. The creator of THE MAGICIANS has woven another spell. * George R. R. Martin, author of A Game of Thrones *
For anyone whos ever craved a seat at the Round Table. Utterly enchanting. * Rebecca Yarros, No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Fourth Wing *
Compulsively readable and expertly told. Lev Grossman transports the reader with such assurance and finesse. Just pick it up and lose yourself inside these pages. You wont want to leave until the tale is done. * Victor LaValle, author of The Changeling and Lone Women *
A novel that is as much about the Matter of Britain as it is our own florid and layered imaginings of it. Breathlessly weaves themes of faith, duty, and selfhood with a classic sword-and-sorcery adventure - this is why we read fantasy. * Ava Reid, Sunday Times bestselling author of A Study in Drowning *
