Cornwell paints a picture of Arthur both familiar and unfamiliar—he is just one of Uther Pendragon's many illegitimate sons, with no interest whatsoever in becoming king—while also revealing expected locations and characters: Merlin, Guinevere, Lancelot, Galahad, and the Round Table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eOne of the most important British authors today, Cornwell has been translated into more than sixteen languages, and his novels quickly reached the top of bestseller lists, selling millions of copies worldwide. The key to his success lies in his meticulous historical research and the engaging narrative with which Cornwell dissects the lives of his characters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Drawing on new facts and archaeological discoveries, Bernard Cornwell portrays in \u003cem\u003eThe Enemy of God\u003c\/em\u003e the greatest of all British heroes as a powerful warrior who fights the Saxons to keep Britain united in the 5th century, in the wake of the Romans' departure. After defeating external and internal enemies, defending the throne that will be occupied by his nephew Mordred, Uther's rightful successor, it is time for Arthur to focus on unifying the kingdom. But religious conflicts between Druids and Christians seem more threatening than hordes of Saxons thirsting for land and crops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eIn contrast to Arthur's level-headedness, a Merlin emerges, capable of doing anything to revive Britain's ancient magic and reunite the island with its ancient gods. But Arthur believes only in law and oaths, quickly becoming the enemy of all religious fanatics. Narrated by Derfel, a Saxon warrior raised among Britons who quickly becomes Arthur's right-hand man, \u003cem\u003eThe Enemy of God\u003c\/em\u003e follows a quest for sacred relics, enchantments, and tricks, amidst bloody battles and betrayals. Like Lancelot, who attempts to usurp the queen's crown and heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eGod's Enemy\u003c\/em\u003e follows the success of The Winter King, bringing readers into the life of Arthur and his world with a stunning clarity never achieved in previous narratives. It is the story of a man fighting for his ideals in a brutal age, hampered by suspicion and magic from the past, surrounded by intrigue, and relying solely on his skill in war and his talent for leadership. A thrilling novel that reveals historical facts about Arthur and his world, immortalized by bards who have for centuries sung the adventures of the greatest hero of all time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Totvsrj-record-dc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159816782076,"sku":"9788501061188","price":99.9,"currency_code":"BRL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/9197\/5420\/files\/ddf95fe3d0e1b901edabc5700ba22f6f.jpg?v=1778324684","url":"https:\/\/www.record.com.br\/en\/products\/o-inimigo-de-deus-vol-2-as-cronicas-de-artur","provider":"Editora Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
