Große, epische Fantasy und eine meisterhafte Neuinterpretation der Artus-Mythologie von Bestseller-Autor Lev Grossman. Als der junge Ritter Collum in Camelot eintrifft, um seinen Platz an der Tafelrunde einzunehmen, muss er feststellen, dass er zu spät kommt. Der König ist tot und hinterließ keinen Erben. Nur eine Handvoll Ritter hat die Schlacht von Camlann überlebt, doch es sind nicht die Helden der Legende, wie Lancelot oder Gawain. Es sind die Sonderlinge der Tafelrunde wie Sir Palomides, der sarazenische Ritter, und Sir Dagonet, Artus' Narr, der zum Scherz zum Ritter geschlagen wurde.

The legend of King Arthur - founder of Camelot and wielder of Excalibur - was born of disputed historical fact, folktales, and romantic literary invention. Compiled by Geoffrey of Monmouth in the twelfth century and edited by Sir James Knowles in the nineteenth, these stories begin with Merlin’s prophecies of Arthur’s birth. We follow the king from the fellowship of the Round Table to the quest for the Holy Grail and into war with Sir Lancelot of the Lake. Knowles’s 1862 edition, dedicated to Alfred Tennyson, returned Arthur to cultural prominence....
