ARTORIGUS: THE DOWNFALL OF A KING

by ROSS STEPHENSON

PoetryPaperback£7.99

Artorigus' kingdom is in danger. His once tight grip on his beloved realm is slipping through the gaps between his fingers. He is surrounded from all sides by his shadowy past. Can his loyal knights be trusted? Is his wife hiding a terrible secret? Even his own progeny, Medraut plots to overthrow him. Can he keep his rule intact? Based on the legends of old and inspired by the classical lyricism of Shakespeare, this modern adaptation of King Arthur blends prose with verses to create a unique look into the themes of stagnation, idleness, betrayal and love.
