This is book four of The Pendragon Cycle.
This book was interesting because 'Arthur' ends with the end of all things within the Summer Kingdom, and 'Pendragon' begins, once again, with Arthur as a young and newly-crowned King.
This book is told from Merlin's perspective. It begins with Arthur's crown taking as High King (something described in the previous book) but is told with fresh detail and Merlin's insights. In 'Arthur' a brief sentence or two was written to say that Arthur took a trip to Gwenhwyvar's home country after the crown taking. In 'Pendragon' the majority of the book is dedicated to describing exactly what happened on that trip and the events that followed immediately after. It is a small, detailed snapshot of events within this specific portion of Arthur's reign.
This is another book of bloody battles, stubborn lesser kings, and problems within the Island of the Mighty that reach far beyond the issues of war. This book describes how Arthur fully (and finally) becomes the Pendragon of Britain, and how events at the end of this book directly affect the structuring of events in the book to come.
