Penguin presents the audiobook edition of King Hereafter by Dorothy Dunnett, read by David Rintoul.

It is the eleventh century, and Europe is full of young kings - some dreaming of new civilisation, some content to live as their forefathers have done, and all ceaselessly fighting, befriending or betraying one other.

Such is the world of the real Macbeth, part Christian, part Viking, who has the imagination and determination to move himself and his people out of a barbarian past and into flowering nationhood. In this brilliant recreation of his life we see him as a man of extraordinary courage, wit and skill - utterly self-reliant yet profoundly in love with woman he marries - a pirate of the sea yet a prince with the foresight and passion to set him apart from other men.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Dorothy Dunnett

Dorothy Dunnett foi considerada por muitos a melhor autora de ficção histórica do seu tempo, reconhecida internacionalmente por aliar factos históricos e imaginação. Ganhou fama sobretudo com as séries As Crónicas de Lymond e The House of Niccolo – passadas na Europa e no Mediterrâneo dos séculos XV e XVI – e com o romance histórico King Hereafter.
Em 1992, Dorothy Dunnett recebeu o prémio OBE pelo serviço prestado à literatura, e, em 2014, Francis Crawford de Lymond, o seu protagonista mais duradouro, foi votado o personagem histórico favorito dos Escoceses – ultrapassando figuras como Sherlock Holmes e Harry Potter.
A autora fundou a Dorothy Dunnett Society, com o objetivo de promover o estudo das épocas sobre as quais escrevia e de incentivar à conservação e leitura das suas obras.
