Bookroo's summary

In a land of magic and mystery, King Arthur rises from humble beginnings to forge the legendary Camelot. With the mystical sword in the stone, he unites the Knights of the Round Table. Yet, as he marries Guinevere, dark forces loom. Merlin, the wise sorcerer, faces a tragic downfall at the hands of the cunning Vivien. Will Arthur's reign endure, or will betrayal and enchantment unravel his kingdom? Dive into a timeless tale of heroism, love, and destiny.

From the publisher

From the sword in the stone and the founding of Camelot to the famed Round Table and the Lake of Enchantment, the legend of King Arthur will never lose its magic. Though simpler, this version includes all the wonderful stories–such as King Arthur’s winning of Guenievere and Merlin’s tragic downfall at the hands of the evil Vivien.
