The Bright Sword

If you love King Arthur as much as I do, you’ll love Lev Grossman’s THE BRIGHT SWORD, a fresh and engrossing take on the Matter of Britain featuring a colourful cast of Round Table knights who don’t often get as much story time as they deserve. The creator of THE MAGICIANS has woven another spell. * George R. R. Martin, author of A Game of Thrones *For anyone who’s ever craved a seat at the Round Table. Utterly enchanting. * Rebecca Yarros, No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Fourth Wing *Compulsively readable and expertly told. Lev Grossman transports the reader with such assurance and finesse. Just pick it up and lose yourself inside these pages. You won’t want to leave until the tale is done. * Victor LaValle, author of The Changeling and Lone Women *A novel that is as much about the Matter of Britain as it is our own florid and layered imaginings of it. Breathlessly weaves themes of faith, duty, and selfhood with a classic sword-and-sorcery adventure - this is why we read fantasy. * Ava Reid, Sunday Times bestselling author of A Study in Drowning *PRAISE FOR LEV GROSSMAN’S MAGICIANS TRILOGY * : *The Magicians is to Harry Potter as a shot of Irish whiskey is to a glass of weak tea … dark and dangerous and full of twists. Hogwarts was never like this. * George R. R. Martin, bestselling author of A Game of Thrones *A darkly cunning story about the power of imagination itself. * The New Yorker *Lev Grossman has conjured a rare creature: a trilogy that simply gets better and better as it goes along … Literary perfection. * Erin Morgenstern *The most entertaining and compelling fantasy I’ve read in a long time. * The Times *Brilliantly explores the hidden underbelly of fantasy and easy magic, taking what’s simple on the surface and turning it over to show us the complicated writhing mess beneath. * Naomi Novik, author of Uprooted *
