The Prince and the Pilgrim

By: Mary Stewart

Narrated by: Derek Perkins

The best-selling author of the acclaimed Merlin Trilogy returns to the magical world of King Arthur and Camelot - to tell a story of daring adventure, unexpected love, and unsurpassed enchantment.

Eager, burning, and young, Alexander has come of age to take vengeance on the treacherous King of Cornwall who murdered his father. He sets off toward Camelot to seek justice from King Arthur, only to be diverted by the beautiful and sensual Morgan le Fay, Arthur's sister. Using her wiles and her enchantments, Morgan persuades the young prince to attempt a theft of the Holy Grail. He is unaware her motives are of the darkest nature.

Motherless daughter of a royal duke, Alice has lived a life of lively adventure, accompanying her father on his yearly pilgrimages. Now, on her father's final visit to Jerusalem, she comes under the protection of a young prince whose brothers were murdered, a prince who is in possession of an enchanted silver cup believed to be the mysterious Holy Grail itself.

Thus the stage is set for two young seekers to meet - and to find not what they are searching for but, instead, the greatest treasure of all: love.

A Good Engaging Story of the Time of Camelot

Love the time period of King Arthur, knights, Pagans, Christians and Druids, Merlyn and castles.

It was too short, I want more!

I love reading great stories from excellent story tellers and when a fantastic narrator delivers, it's a winning combo & worth my time & attention.

Great addition to the Merlin trilogy

I’m glad it was the same narrator as the other books. It made it seem like a natural progression of the story. I loved this book like I loved the others

A Little Better Than Average

This is not one of Mary Stewart's better books. A spin-off of her Merlin series, it lacks the mystic wonder or depth of political intrigue the series had. It was enjoyable for what it was, but hardly better than average. The narrator was superb in capturing both the tone and the feel of the story, and in bringing life to the characters in it.

Very Good

I listened to this book after finishing Mary Stewarts Arthurian Saga... I was a little disappointed as I was so in love with the other books. It was still a nice listen and sweet love story.
