What it is

In The Coming of Arthur, acclaimed poet, scholar and priest Malcolm Guite brings new life to Britain's greatest national myth.

The second volume of his epic four-part Merlin's Isle cycle follows Arthur's journey from youth to kingship, combining the richness of medieval storytelling with themes that speak powerfully to modern readers: courage, service, friendship, leadership and the search for true character.

Hailed as a major contemporary retelling of the Arthurian legend, the book has already attracted exceptional critical and public interest before publication.

Join us for an evening with Malcolm, launching this epic work on the island of Ireland, and hearing from the author himself. Signed copies of this and volume 1 - Galahad & the Grail will be available for purchase on the night.
