The Bright Sword
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A New York Times Editors’ Choice • The #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Magicians Trilogy and “master storyteller” (New York Times) returns with a triumphant reimagining of the King Arthur legend for the new millennium Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES, NPR, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, VANITY FAIR, TIME, OPRAH DAILY, TOWN & COUNTRY, ELLE, VOX, PASTE, LIT HUB, POLYGON, KIRKUS REVIEWS “Lev Grossman’s The Bright Sword stands out as the best fantasy of the year.” —The Wall Street Journal “Grossman, who is best known for his The Magicians series, is at the top of his game with The Bright Sword.” —The New York Times Book Review “A thrilling new take on Arthurian legend. . . . Marvelous.” —The Washington PostA gifted young knight named Collum arrives at Camelot to compete for a place at the Round Table, only to find that he’s too late. King Arthur died two weeks ago at the Battle of Camlann, and only a handful of the knights of the Round Table are left.The survivors aren’t the heroes of legend like Lancelot or Gawain. They’re the oddballs of the Round Table, like Sir Palomides, the Saracen Knight, and Sir Dagonet, Arthur’s fool, who was knighted as a joke. They’re joined by Nimue, who was Merlin’s apprentice until she turned on him and buried him under a hill. But it's up to them to rebuild Camelot in a world that has lost its balance, even as God abandons Britain and the fairies and old gods return, led by Morgan le Fay. They must reclaim Excalibur and make this ruined world whole again—but first they'll have to solve the mystery of why the lonely, brilliant King Arthur fell. The first major Arthurian epic of the new millennium, The Bright Sword is steeped in tradition, complete with duels and quests, battles and tournaments, magic swords and Fisher Kings. It's also a story about imperfect men and women, full of strength and pain, trying to reforge a broken land in spite of being broken themselves.

The Bright Sword
Große, epische Fantasy und eine meisterhafte Neuinterpretation der Artus-Mythologie von Bestseller-Autor Lev Grossman. 'Wenn Sie König Artus so sehr schätzen wie ich, dann werden Sie The Bright Sword lieben. ' George R. R. Martin Als der junge Ritter Collum in Camelot eintrifft, um seinen Platz an der Tafelrunde einzunehmen, muss er feststellen, dass er zu spät kommt. Der König ist tot und hinterließ keinen Erben. Nur eine Handvoll Ritter hat die Schlacht von Camlann überlebt, doch es sind nicht die Helden der Legende, wie Lancelot oder Gawain. Es sind die Sonderlinge der Tafelrunde wie Sir Palomides, der sarazenische Ritter, und Sir Dagonet, Artus' Narr, der zum Scherz zum Ritter geschlagen wurde. Zu ihnen gesellt sich Nimue, die Merlins Lehrling war, bis sie sich gegen ihn gewendet hat. Gemeinsam macht sich diese zusammengewürfelte Gemeinschaft auf den Weg, um Camelot in einer zerstörten Welt wieder aufzubauen. 'Für alle, die sich schon immer nach einem Platz in der Tafelrunde gesehnt haben. Absolut bezaubernd.' Rebecca Yarros Für Leser*innen von Robert Jordan, Bernard Cornwell und Andrzej Sapkowski

The Bright Sword
"Collum, a brilliantly gifted young knight from the provinces, arrives at Camelot two weeks after the Battle of Camlann, hoping to compete for a spot on the Round Table. But he finds the city empty, King Arthur dead, and the Table destroyed. The remaining six knights aren't the mighty heroes, the legends, like Lancelot and Gawain and Tristram and Galahad. These are the survivors, a grab-bag of minor oddball knights from the margins. ... Arthur's death has exposed the splinters of his kingdom, and a void has opened in the heart of Britain. As power-hungry lords from the north descend on Camelot to seize control of the land, Collum is thrust into the front lines"--

The Magician King
Return to Fillory in the riveting sequel to the New York Times bestseller and literary phenomenon, The Magicians, now an original series on SYFY, from the author of the #1 bestselling The Magician's Land. Quentin Coldwater should be happy. He escaped a miserable Brooklyn childhood, matriculated at a secret college for magic, and graduated to discover that Fillory-a fictional utopia-was actually real. But even as a Fillorian king, Quentin finds little peace. His old restlessness returns, and he longs for the thrills a heroic quest can bring. Accompanied by his oldest friend, Julia, Quentin sets off-only to somehow wind up back in the real world and not in Fillory, as they'd hoped. As the pair struggle to find their way back to their lost kingdom, Quentin is forced to rely on Julia's illicitly learned sorcery as they face a sinister threat in a world very far from the beloved fantasy novels of their youth.

The Magicians
The New York Times bestselling novel about a young man practicing magic in the real world, now an original series on SYFY"The Magicians is to Harry Potter as a shot of Irish whiskey is to a glass of weak tea. . . . Hogwarts was never like this." -George R.R. Martin "Sad, hilarious, beautiful, and essential to anyone who cares about modern fantasy." -Joe Hill "A very knowing and wonderful take on the wizard school genre." -John Green "The Magicians may just be the most subversive, gripping and enchanting fantasy novel I've read this century." -Cory Doctorow"This gripping novel draws on the conventions of contemporary and classic fantasy novels in order to upend them . . . an unexpectedly moving coming-of-age story." -The New Yorker"The best urban fantasy in years." -A.V. ClubQuentin Coldwater is brilliant but miserable. A high school math genius, he's secretly fascinated with a series of children's fantasy novels set in a magical land called Fillory, and real life is disappointing by comparison. When Quentin is unexpectedly admitted to an elite, secret college of magic, it looks like his wildest dreams have come true. But his newfound powers lead him down a rabbit hole of hedonism and disillusionment, and ultimately to the dark secret behind the story of Fillory. The land of his childhood fantasies turns out to be much darker and more dangerous than he ever could have imagined. . . .The prequel to the New York Times bestselling book The Magician King and the #1 bestseller The Magician's Land, The Magicians is one of the most daring and inventive works of literary fantasy in years. No one who has escaped into the worlds of Narnia and Harry Potter should miss this breathtaking return to the landscape of the imagination.
