It is said that the sword can only be taken by the Britons' rightful king... From Sunday Times bestseller Amy Jeffs', Arthur: A New Life mines the deep, elusive seams of a story we think we all know: the legend of King Arthur.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBut here he is anew: a larger-than-life warlord, a hero raised by fairies, a leader of the wild hunt, a monster-slayer, lying wounded under the ash cloud, longing to rise again. Tracing an epic story from Merlin's conception and the building of the Round Table to the abduction of Guinevere and King Arthur's ambitious quest for Empire, this Arthur is as real as any other, brought back to life from the earliest sources. Drawing out the dark and beautiful stories from the original medieval and early-modern texts, Amy guides the reader from citadels through forests, into volcanoes, caves and riverbanks and beyond, even as far as Hell and the Otherworld.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGoing further than merely the stories, she provides incisive commentary about each tale, emphasising the legends' crafted nature and their symbiotic relationship with the political cultures of contemporary medieval Europe. Thirty original linocut illustrations map the inky Arthurian myth-scape, darkened by time, familiar as a dream.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003eHardback\u003cbr\u003ePublication: 10 Sept 2026, Quercus \u003cbr\u003eISBN: 9781529431681\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eExtent: 400 pages \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David's Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57448897577342,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/0892\/5225\/files\/9781529431681.jpg?v=1774530173","url":"https:\/\/www.davids-bookshops.co.uk\/products\/arthur-a-new-life-by-amy-jeffs-signed-pre-order","provider":"David's Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
