These stories are about how, many years ago, Arthur the once and future King of England, set out to save his country from the troubles that plagued it, aided by the brave knights of his Round Table, and the most famous sword in the world, Excalibur; how Merlin the wizard fought against the wicked Morgana le Fay’s enchantments, and how Arthur loved and lost the beautiful Guinevere, his Queen.
King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table eBook Benedict Flynn
As others have mentioned, it's truly Sean Bean's narration that sets this recording apart. He does a fabulous job making the story come alive and, well, his voice is just utterly lovely as well.I agree with a previous reviewer that the music left something to be desired (perhaps, in fact, simply that it had been left out). The music is more often distracting -- and occasionally inappropriate to the story -- than not. But I'm still giving the recording 5 stars because otherwise it's so wonderful and oughtn't be missed.
For listening with kids... My 2nd grader has been equally enchanted as I, and has been asking to drive out of our way just to listen to more. As with any telling of the Arthur tales, there's the opportunity for a fair amount of sexual content. What is said is basically between the lines, but very clear for older listeners. It would probably go over most children's heads, as it has my son, but some parents might feel it's inappropriate for children. There are encounters that lead to children, kisses that signal infidelity, women lying on beds and men who "love" them. Nothing is described in detail, but some parents might be uncomfortable with the conversations that could arise.
Most of the familiar stories are here: the sword in the stone, Excalibur and the Lady of the Lake, Gawain and the green knight, the lady of Shalott, Lancelot's love for Guinevere, Sir Galahad and the "perilous" seat, the quest for the Holy Grail, Morgana Le Fay (entirely wicked, as is traditional, in this version)... Overall, I feel it's an excellent introduction to the tales. And so beautiful to listen to!

King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table eBook Benedict Flynn Reviews
I honestly have to say that I purchased this audio CD through Audible.com only to hear the beautiful voice of Sean Bean. I wasn't disappointed! Then, after hearing a great story, I purchased it again through for my 9 year old nephew. Sean does a brilliant job, that would keep any person, young or old, interested in hearing the story of King Arthur. Highly recommended!
I've just finished reading this to my 3 sons as a follow on from the Dark is rising series. 10 year old twins and an 8 year old were all engaged with the pace, the detail and the language. Very suitable and appropriate for their age. An excellent re telling of the story that covered all the necessary points.
I was always intrigued by this story. It was very well written. This CD offers the story told with the lush and sumptuous voice of actor, Sean Bean. Not a bad deal for the price I paid. Let's be frank on this one. Mr. Bean could read the phone book and make it sound wonderful. I couldn't go wrong with this purchase.
Really great listening for children that will entertain adults too. Sean Bean's reads the story wonderfully.
There is nothing better than to hear an epic story with Sean Bean's beautiful voice. I love the story and know children will as well. He is a great reader and knows when and how to emphasize important parts of expression. I hope he does more readings like this. He's fabulous.
A beautiful story. I love it.
A withered man who protects Arthur at the end as he sleeps.
Morgana le Fey, his arch-enemy, who plotted against Arthur.
Highly recommended for you to read E-books in the kindle bookstore.
I am going to read in the near future more E-books from Naxos AudioBooks.
Excellent work!!
Thank you very much.
I ordered this book for my 8 year old son who suffers from Dyslexia. It was suggested by a specialist that we get him books that he can read WHILE he's listening to the story. I was so excited to receive this book. The binding is wonderful and high quality. It will last. It has a pocket in the back of the book to hold the CD, so nothing gets lost. But most importantly, to me, was the printing. Its a larger, more spaced, font. MUCH easier for my son to read and follow along with. Theres not huge paragraphs on each page, discouraging him. I LOVE THIS (and the Peter Pan) BOOK! I do have to say though, that i have NOT listened to it yet as it's a Christmas present. But, im sure that its just as great!
