FROM THE NO. 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF WAR LORD COMES AN EPIC RETELLING OF THE ARTHURIAN LEGEND
In the Dark Ages, a legendary warrior arises to unite a divided land . . .
_________
Uther, the High King of Britain, is dead.
His only heir is the infant Mordred. Yet each of the country's lesser kings seek to claim the crown for themselves.
While they squabble and spoil for war, a host of Saxon armies gather, preparing for invasion.
But no one has counted on the fearsome warlord Arthur.
Handed power by Merlin and pursuing a doomed romance with the beautiful Guinevere, Arthur knows he will struggle to unite the country – let alone hold back the Saxon enemy at the gates.
Yet destiny awaits him . . .
From the epic and bestselling author who has gripped millions.
_________

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Historia
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Historia
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Superb narration
Although this is not the author’s, best work, the narrator more than compensates for the occasionally tortured prose.

Captivating Arthurian Audiobook that Shines with Emotive Narration and Abundant References!
Title: Audiobook Review: Winter King by Bernard Cornwell
I recently listened to the audiobook version of Winter King by Bernard Cornwell, and I must say, it was the best performance I have ever heard. The narrator did an exceptional job of bringing the text to life with emotions, including laughter and character voices that added depth to the story.
One aspect that stood out to me was how the author incorporated the Arthurian mythos into the story. It felt like reading a well-written fanfic, as the author clearly had a deep understanding and imagination for living in that world. The relationships between the characters and their connections to Arthurian legends, real historical figures, and other British origins were evident and made for an intriguing read.
Another highlight of the book was the sheer amount of references and easter eggs scattered throughout the story. I found myself constantly searching for familiar names and discovering how they were related to the Arthurian legends or other historical contexts. It was a delightful treasure hunt that added depth to the storytelling.
One aspect that could have been improved upon was the use of "deus ex machina" resources, which almost ruined a great moment for me. However, this was a minor issue in an otherwise captivating story.
I also appreciated the exploration of the relationships between different religions and cultures in the book. The interactions between the Saxons, Irish, and other groups provided a fascinating perspective on the historical context of the Arthurian era.
Overall, Winter King is definitely worth listening to, even if you have read other Arthurian books before. The narrator's performance is outstanding, and the unique take on the Arthurian mythos, coupled with the abundance of references and easter eggs, make it an engaging and enjoyable listen. I highly recommend it to fans of historical fiction, Arthurian legends, and those who enjoy a fresh take on familiar stories.

Historical Fiction at its Finest
A wonderfully rich interpretation of the Arthurian legend, infusing common themes and characters with the gritty reality of 5th century Britain.

Long in the tooth...BUT!
Admirably done
A great take on an old story. Made you do some research on pre-Roman Briton. Takes the fictional literary yarn of Author much more human.
Twas a bit long but gripping in the end. Bernard Cornwell delivers for me.

adored it.
I've been running the King Arthur Pendragon tabletop roleplaying game for a while and thought I'd read this as a fun inspirational read after stuff like Mallory.
Holy crap this book gutpunched me and had me in its grips entirely til it was over. It was so much more than what I expected. From the first debut of Arthur in the eyes of a 14 year old to the great battle I was enchanted in its story.
I had no experience with the author's writings prior but the narrator I knew from other books, like Helsreach. And the booming voice of him is exactly the melodramatic flair this book required. absolutely perfect.

Slow and boring
Story was so slow, i almost stopped in many occasions. The accents were poor and really annoying. I had high hopes as I love the sharpe series by Bernard Cornwall, but I will not be getting the second in the series.
