The Bright Sword: A Novel of King Arthur Audiobook by Lev Grossman

Narrated by Lev Grossman and Nicholas Guy Smith23 hr 10 min

Lev Grossman picks up the Arthur legend at its lowest moment — the king dead, Camelot in ashes — and hands the salvage operation to the misfits. The Bright Sword is a melancholy, talky, often funny epic about second-string knights trying to rebuild a world that's already lost its meaning.

On audio, Lev Grossman and Nicholas Guy Smith narrate all 23 hr 10 min of The Bright Sword: A Novel of King Arthur — an easy way to get through your TBR pile on the go.
