Column Regarding Books Excalibur (The Arthur Books #3)

I read this series years ago, but started it again to study Cornwell, line-by-line. This book just gets so profoundly sad as you move deeper through it. There are so many things I would love to change about our history. This book makes me want to step back in time 15 centuries to stop Christianity from infecting the world, and to burn all of the Saxon ships before they sailed to Britain.

I think Martin put it best - The best battle scenes of any writer Ive ever read, past or present. A gripping tale of love, courage and betrayal. Highly recommended !

DuplicitousExcalibur is the final book of the Warlord Chronicles trilogy and it maintains the excitement, intrigue, conflict and wonderful narrative the first two books led us to expect. The Arthurian legend has never been better told, on any medium. The land is divided into kingdoms and Arthur continues his quest to unite the Britons and repel the Saxons. His mission is noble and is tied to his oath to Uther. Mordred should be King, we took an oath to make him King, and if we beat the Saxons,
