About this listen

 Step into the enchanting world of King Arthur and his legendary Knights, rooted in rich Celtic history. These captivating tales, adapted from the Book of Romance by ANDREW LANG, transport you to a time just after the Romans departed from Britain. Here, the Britons rose against the marauding Saxons, led by Arthur, who is believed to have lived in the sixth century—a period marked by heroism and chivalry. From the mouths of minstrels to the pages of literature, these stories have been passed down through generations, preserving the valor of Arthur and his companions. The narratives not only reflect the spirit of their time but have also been shaped by the writings of Geoffrey of Asaph and Sir Thomas Malory, whose “Morte d’Arthur” remains one of the most renowned works of Arthurian legend. Enjoy this beautifully modified retelling, making the timeless legends accessible for both old and new audiences.
