Arthur The Soldier “The famous Arthur? I had begun to think you were a legend…” A literary novel of Arthurian legend, Arthur the Soldier peers through the myths of King Arthur and shows what might have been the Dark Age reality, a blooded soldier, returned from distant wars, striving to bring unity and order to the land he loves. In this evocative first release of Chaosium’s new Pendragon Fiction line, Arthurian scholar Chris Gidlow brings the legends to life, vividly transporting the reader to tumultuous post-Roman Britain. Arthur the Soldier is Part One of the Ruin of Britain trilogy, the first title in Chaosium's new Pendragon Fiction line.

Copies of these book will also be available for purchase at the event.

Coming to Dragonmeet on Saturday 30th? This is the night before!
