The Saxon Shore

Camulod Chronicles, Book 4

By: Jack Whyte

Narrated by: Kevin Pariseau

Merlyn Britannicus and Uther Pendragon - the Silver Bear and the Red Dragon - are the leaders of the Colony, lifeblood to the community from which will come the fabled Camulod.

But soon their tranquillity is in ruins, Uther lies dead from treachery, and all that is left of the dream is the orphaned babe Arthur. Heir to the Colony of Camulod, born with Roman heritage as well as the blood of the Hibernians and the Celts, Arthur is the living incarnation of the sacred dream of his ancestors: independent survival in Britain amidst the ruins of the Roman Empire.

When Arthur is adopted by Merlyn Britannicus, an enormous responsibility is placed on Merlyn's shoulders. Now he must prepare young Arthur to unify the clans of Britain and guard the mighty sword Excalibur.

And, above all, Merlyn must see that Arthur survives to achieve the rest of his ancestors' dreams, in spite of the deadly threats rumbling from the Saxon Shore.

Great story

First time listening to the audiobook of this story. I've read the series at least four or five times. Narrorator did a great job!

Best Management Book in Print

Imagine being tutored and coached by the founders of Camalot, the great thinkers of Roman, and Merlin himself. If I can take the lessons and stories to heart, I will be a better husband, father, uncle, brother, friend, and leader.

great story

This is great story, well narrated, somewhat long winded at times, but an easy listen. Very enjoyable series, will be one I listen to more than once.

good rendition of the book which I've read. s

story is well thought-out although by this point in the series it's a little tedious and wordy. but I still enjoy it I've read the whole series of books and now as I drive down the road I listen to the books years later

Great book
