The Death of Arthur

- Excerpts from the Halls of Reproach

Bag om The Death of Arthur

Here lies the Renowned King Arthur in Insula Avallonia, with Guinevere his 2nd wife. These are the words on Arthur's tombstone, but the tale behind the huge bones found in 1190 behind Glastonbury Abbey has always been distorted. Now not only the Death of Arthur, and his taking away and return in death, are here related, but also the Fall of Merlin. Seduced by a woman he knows will betray him and knows the betrayal must be done that he may sleep till the world's end, Merlin goes along with her until he has taught her the fatal lore of casting a Sleeper. Here also are given Excerpts from the Halls of Reproach, regarding many new versions never before seen of Norse mythology. This companion book to the Arheled series cannot be avoided.
