King Arthur: The Bloody Cup (King Arthur Trilogy 3)
Author: M. K. Hume
Publisher: Hachette UK
ISBN: 0755349687
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
War. Darkness. Legend. King Artor, now an aging monarch, is under threat yet again, facing both physical and emotional battles in the culmination of M.K. Hume's King Arthur trilogy. Perfect for fans of James Wilde and Ben Kane. 'Hume brings the bloody, violent, conniving world vividly to life...will appeal to those who thrill to Game of Thrones and other tales of intersecting, ever-warring, noble lineages' - Kirkus Review For many years, the people of Briton have enjoyed peace and prosperity under the reign of King Artor and the Union of Kings. Having spurned the despotism of his predecessor, Uther Pendragon, Arthur has ruled with a strong sense of duty, goodness and honour. Artor is now weakening with age, however, and the seeds of discontent are being sown. Seeking to cleanse the land of Christian belief, dissenters need a symbol with which to legitimise their pagan claim and gather malcontents together into a cohesive weapon. These shadowy, subversive elements seize upon the ancient cup of Bishop Lucius of Glastonbury as a way of fragmenting Artor's hard-fought-for kingdom. But first, they must lay their hands on the relic and, in doing so, unleash a force for evil from which murder and violent mayhem ensue. But it emerges that the ultimate threat to Artor's rule lies far closer to home; Artor is betrayed by kin. Celt will slay Celt and the river will run with blood. What readers are saying about King Arthur: The Bloody Cup: 'The tale is told in a very dedicated and passionate way by the author, and it pictures Celtic Britain in a most remarkable fashion. All the characters come vividly to life yet again in this heartfelt story while the atmosphere of the times really comes off the pages' 'A stunning finale full of action, intrigue, strong characterisation, bloodshed, treachery and passion'

Many Sun-Turnings have passed since the Ardhu the Stone Lord inherited the kingship of Prydn. His illegitimate son Mordraed seeks his father's hall on the Great Plain, and a place among the famed warriors of Kham-el-Ard, but his appearance brings a shadow and a doubt. With his power waning and the land beginning to fail, Ardhu must lead his warriors on a final journey to retrieve a golden Cup, which the Maimed King of the Wasteland foretells will unite a crumbling kingdom. Gal'havad, most trusted of Ardhu's men, and his only legitimate heir - a sickly youth, half in the World of Spirit - is befriended by his half-brother Mordraed and lured into a deathly pact. Meanwhile, The Merlin, old and ill, struggles to see through the darkness that is rising and is made temporarily powerless to help, betrayed by those he thought friends. With An'kelet and Fynavir's illicit affair discovered, Mordraed manipulates his father into leaving his Kingdom to wage war on his former friend and seizes power himself, turning the fields to dust and slighting Khor Ghor, the great temple to the Ancestors upon the Great Plain.. Mordraed, the Dark Moon, has Risen... and the Stones of the Giants' Dance will fall! Stand-alone sequel to STONE LORD Moon Lord is a book set in Britain's prehistory such as you've never read before. Mixing fiction with the latest archaeological discoveries, it covers a prehistoric landscape ranging from Stonehenge and Avebury, to Seahenge in Norfolk and Newgrange in Ireland. A novel of the prehistoric origins of the man we called KING ARTHUR...
