Utterly enchanting.'Rebecca Yarros, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Fourth Wing_______________________________________________________________No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of the Magicians trilogy returns with a triumphant reimagining of the King Arthur legend for the new millennium.When gifted young knight Collum arrives at Camelot to compete for a place on the Round Table, he quickly discovers that he's too late:The king died two weeks ago at the Battle of Camlann, and only a handful of the knights of the Round Table are left.And the survivors aren't the heroes of legend either, like Lancelot or Gawain. They're the oddballs of the Round Table, like Sir Palomides, the Saracen Knight, and Sir Dagonet, Arthur's fool, who was knighted as a joke. They're joined by Nimue, who was Merlin's apprentice until she turned on him and buried him under a hill.But it's up to them to rebuild Camelot in a world that has lost its balance, even as God abandons Britain and the fairies and old gods are returning, led by Morgan le Fay. They must reclaim Excalibur and make this ruined world whole again.But first they'll have to solve the mystery of why the lonely, brilliant King Arthur fell.The first major Arthurian epic of the new millennium, The Bright Sword is a story about imperfect men and women, full of strength and pain, who are looking for a way to reforge a broken land in spite of being broken themselves.'You'll love Lev Grossman's The Bright Sword' George R.R.

188,95 kr. Kate y su hermano menor Tom llevan unas vidas aburridas y poco interesantes. Y seguramente sus padres tienen algo que ver con eso. ¿Por qué Kate no puede vivir aventuras extraordinarias y salvar el mundo como lo hacen los protagonistas de los libros que lee? Incluso su undécimo cumpleaños parece que será igual de anodino, hasta que su misterioso tío Herbert, a quien no conocía, la sorprende con el regalo de cumpleaños más inesperado, impresionante e inapropiado que se pueda imaginar: una colosal locomotora de vapor llamada La Flecha Plateada. Sus padres quieren devolverle el regalo al tío Herbert, pero antes de que eso suceda, Kate y Tom viajan a tierras lejanas a bordo de La Flecha Plateada y en compañía de toda clase de animales exóticos que, al parecer, pueden hablar. Armados únicamente con su curiosidad, ingenio y la emoción de lo desconocido para guiarlos, Kate y Tom se encuentran de pronto en la aventura de su vida... ¿y quién sabe? Quizá terminen salvando el mundo después de todo. Kate and her younger brother Tom lead boring and uninteresting lives. And surely her parents have something to do with it. Why can't Kate go on extraordinary adventures and save the world like the protagonists of the books she reads? Even her eleventh birthday seems like it will be just as nondescript, until her mysterious uncle Herbert, whom she didn't know, surprises her with the most unexpected, impressive, and inappropriate birthday present imaginable: a colossal steam engine named The Silver Arrow. Her parents want to return the gift to Uncle Herbert, but before that happens, Kate and Tom travel to distant lands aboard the Silver Arrow and in the company of all kinds of exotic animals that, it seems, can talk. Armed solely with their curiosity, wit, and the thrill of the unknown to guide them, Kate and Tom suddenly find themselves on the adventure of a lifetime.
