The Winter King tells the most faithful story of the legendary warrior Arthur, who went down in history with the title of king, although he never wore a crown. Based on facts, this brilliant novel portrays the greatest of all heroes as a powerful British warrior, who fights against the Saxons to keep Britain together, in the 5th century, after the departure of the Romans. The valiant soldier grows up within the king's army and within Bernard Cornwell's narrative until he becomes the best friend and advisor in peace and war. In this version of the legend, Arthur - bastard son of King Uther Pendragon - pledges his loyalty and protection to Mordred, legitimate heir to the throne. In a Britain inhabited by Christians and Druids, divided between different feudal lords and their respective interests and threatened by the invasion of the Saxons, Arthur emerges as a powerful and courageous warrior capable of inspiring loyalty and uniting the country with his complex personality, driven by honor, duty it's love. Cornwell rescues curiosities from clashes at the beginning of the Christian era, such as the ritual of swearing. The commanders of rival armies warmed up for battle by meeting in the middle of the field and exchanging insults.
