Review
Neville Jason, the reigning master of the classics audiobook, returns with his reading of the final volumes of White s beloved version of King Arthur and the Round Table. His plummy tones are as pleasing as ever and give White s epic its proper heroic English texture. Surprising, however, are the occasional eruptions of modernity of contemporary speech and intonation that emerge in Jason s reading. The effect, while disconcerting, is also pleasing, giving Arthur, Lancelot and Guinevere, and their knotty romantic travails, a surprisingly up-to-date gloss. Another fine entry in Naxos ever-growing Complete Classics collection. --Publishers Weekly
Product Description
One of the most inventive and charming retellings of the Arthurian legend, this is the final part of The Once and Future King. In these last two books, the ageing king faces the greatest challenge of his reign, when his own son threatens to overthrow him and destroy everything he has worked for. In The Book of Merlyn, Arthurs tutor Merlyn reappears, and the ancient magician teaches him that, even in the face of apparent ruin, there is still hope.
