Arthurica

A Modern English Retelling of Sir Thomas Malory’s Le Morte d’Arthur

By: M.D. Couturier

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

For over half a millennium, Le Morte d’Arthur, Sir Thomas Malory’s seminal collection of tales about King Arthur and his knights of the Round Table, has been, without doubt, the most influential literary work on the Arthurian legend ever written. Malory’s book was originally written in Middle English, and in the five-plus centuries since its publication in 1485, numerous authors have translated or retold Le Morte d’Arthur for the benefit of contemporary readers. And now M.D. Couturier, author of The Kingdom Beneath the Well and Christian Fire, has contributed his take on this timeless classic.

Arthurica contains all of Malory’s tales but written and retold in a way that makes them accessible and relatable to modern audiences. Filled with exciting adventures and unforgettable characters, Couturier’s version of Le Morte d’Arthur transports readers to a long-lost world of magic and chivalry and demonstrates why the mythos of the once and future king continues to endure in the human imagination.
