Product Description The Eagle is the dramatic conclusion of bestselling author Jack Whyte’s four-generation epic of the rise and fall of Arthur Pendragon, High King of All Britain. In this final volume, Whyte takes us into the lives and minds of the three very human and astonishingly ordinary people whose interrelationships would give rise to the greatest, most enduring love story in the Western world. Clothar, the young Frankish knight known as The Lancer, returns to his homeland in Gaul as Arthur’s ambassador. From there, while forging overseas alliances on Arthur’s behalf, he watches as Arthur and Merlyn struggle to unify the clans and peoples of Britain and re-establish the rule of law. But Clothar knows Arthur’s darkest secret. When his friend needs him most, he steps forward.What happened then has never been explained or resolved—until now Review "Whyte weaves historical fact and folklore together with an accomplished and bardic verve." - Edmonton Journal"Whyte’s found the key to refreshing the legend and making it live again… The wealth and richness of the historical detail are fascinating.
