Summary

Epic in its sweep and peopled by the remarkable women who have always inhabited Avalon, Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword of Avalon expands the legendary saga that has enchanted millions of readers over the years and is sure to please Bradley's loyal readership and anyone who loves wonderfully told stories of history, myth, and fantasy. A boy raised in secret after traitors kill his parents will return to Avalon---and when he does, he'll be faced with a formidable task: to prove his worth as a son of the kings and priestesses of his land and lead his followers to victory, wielding the newly forged sword Excalibur.

Critic reviews

"Along with other titles in the series, this will appeal to lovers of Arthurian and Celtic fantasy as well as fans of Bradley and Paxson." ( Library Journal)

Great story ruined by the narrator

This is one of my all time favourite stories and for me it was totally ruined by the voice reading it.

Excalliber is born

A wonderful story set a long time before King Arthur. The goddess of Avalon sets in motion the path of discovery to accomplish the making of Excalliber.
