It is a retelling of the King Arthur legend.Godwin tells the story of King Arthur from a historically accurate perspective, based on research & his own archeological trips to various parts of England. The novel has Arthur dictating a memoir to a friar at a monastery. A flashback leads thru his formative years & his 1st meeting with Merlin.
