T. H. White&rsquo s masterful retelling of the saga of King Arthur is a fantasy classic as legendary as Excalibur and Camelot, and a poignant story of adventure, romance, and magic that has enchanted readers for generations. Once upon a time, a young boy called &ldquo Wart&rdquo was tutored by a magician named Merlyn in preparation for a future he couldn&rsquo t possibly imagine. A future in which he would ally himself with the greatest knights, love a legendary queen and unite a country dedicated to chivalrous values. A future that would see him crowned and known for all time as Arthur, King of the Britons. During Arthur&rsquo s reign, the kingdom of Camelot was founded to cast enlightenment on the Dark Ages, while the knights of the Round Table embarked on many a noble quest. But Merlyn foresaw the treachery that awaited his liege: the forbidden love between Queen Guenever and Lancelot, the wicked plots of Arthur&rsquo s half-sister Morgause and the hatred she fostered in Mordred that would bring an end to the king&rsquo s dreams for Britain&mdash and to the king himself. &ldquo [The Once and Future King] mingles wisdom, wonderful, laugh-out-loud humor and deep sorrow&mdash while telling one of the great tales of the Western world.&rdquo &mdash Guy Gavriel Kay.
