Enemy of God
by Bernard Cornwell
Arthur, having defeated the last holdouts of civil war in southern Britain, has secured King Mordred's throne. But the unified kingdom seems no steadier, its balance threatened by Merlin's ceaseless - and some say futile - quest for the last of the Thirteen Treasures of Britain, by the conflict between the ancient religion and the new Christianity, and by Britain's war against the Saxons. Arthur must face other foes as well, foes more powerful and more dangerous - becuase they pose as friends.
Arthur
by Stephen R. Lawhead
Atlantis has been lost forever, and the reign of Arthur must be dreamed and fought into being.
The Broken Sword
by Warren Murphy
Molly Cochran and Warren Murphy began the tale of King Arthur's return in the 20th Century in 'The Forever King,' which appeared on a number of regional bestseller lists and earned high praise. The chronicle of the return of King Arthur now continues in 'The Broken Sword,' a new tale of chivalry, adventure, and magic in the modern world. When a teenage girl returns the Holy Grail to Arthur, the reincarnation of Camelot's High King, she joins him on a strange and perilous quest--strange because of the effects of Merlin's magic on the 20th Century, and perilous because of a malevolent assassin who knows too much about the Grail and the young King. Arthur must make an impossible choice: to save the life of one he has come to love, he must shatter the fabled sword Excalibur--but breaking the sword will destroy Camelot's power and mark the failure of Arthur's mission to restore the Round Table.
The Eagle and the Sword
by A. A. Attanasio
Merlin has groomed Pendragon's son, the Eagle of Thor, to lead the doomed Celts against the Saxon conquerors. In defeat will Arthur find his victory, and Camelot its triumph? Their light will shine across the ages, a beacon to humankind. But Merlin is shocked to discover that his Eagle is a vicious youth whose only joy is in killing. With his Roman sword named "Short-Life", Arthur will bathe Camelot in blood, unless another sword offers itself to his gory hand. A sword named Excalibur that must be pulled from the star-stone at Creation's radiant heart.
The Fort at River's Bend
by Jack Whyte
Fearing for the life of his nephew Arthur when an assassination attempt goes awry, Merlyn Britannicus takes his young charge to embark on a journey that will take them to the ruins of a long-abandoned Roman fort -- far from Camulod and the only place where Merlyn feels they will be safe. It is there that Merlyn will enlist the help of a close-knit group of friends to help Arthur learn the skills of a warrior and the tough lessons of justice, honor, and the responsibilities of leadership. Arthur is just a boy, but the day is not far off when he will claim the sword that is his birthright: Excalibur. But how can Merlyn prepare young Arthur to be a ruler of men if he continues to train him in isolation? Does the advantage of taking him back to the world out-weigh the threat to his life from those who would stop at nothing to see him dead? The life of young Arthur Pendragon is at a crossroads for new forces are rising to threaten the tenuous peace the countryside. In the end Merlyn must decide to risk the dream -- and the life of his young charge -- if a united Britain is ever to be made real.
