Book Description
An 80-year campaign, dozens of adventures, a complete chronology of Arthur's reign! The Boy King provides everything needed to run a campaign from before Arthur pulls the sword from the stone to the establishment of his empire. Character Generation details character creation for the time before Arthur's reign. Britain Before Arthur provides a chronology of events important to the realm. Before Arthur and The Savage Forest provide opportunities to integrate player knights in to the on-going events of Britain. The Boy King Chronology details the glorious battles and dozens of potential adventures to help Arthur gain his kingship, providing interaction with the great figure of legend. The Adventure of the Castle of Joy provides a long narrative scenario wherein player-knights are tested for their worthiness to help defend the castle of the Holy Grail. Cities describes the nature of Medieval cities, and provides maps and details for both London and Camelot. Later Chronology outlines broad events of the campaign,including Lancelot and Guenever's affair, the Grail Quest, and the death of Arthur--a complete 80-year campaign.
This new second edition is an exact reproduction of the interior of the original book. It also features a new cover by Stephen King and 8 pages of new material tointegrate the book into the Fourth Edition of Pendragon.

Essential
2002/12/16
Whether you are a general devotee to Arthurian litterature or "just" a Pendragon player, this is one book you cannot do without. Apart from giving a deep game background, it also is an overwiew of nearly all medival Arthurian stories, fitted together in an unified historical timeline. The 4th edition version even completes the games list of horses!.
This book is an example of pure role-playing craftmanship, right from its beginning (where creating a campaign is compared to weaving a medival tapestry) to its end (one of the most elegant treatments of Arthurian chronology i have ever seen). People who want a slightly more "standard fantasy" (or as they would call it, "dark") version of Pendragon should find the earlyer chapters most intresting, while more serious players will find them usefull as a contrast to the more chivaleric periods. My personal favourite sections are the ones describing the late, decadent period of King Arthurs reign- very appropriate for making comments on "modern" England.
I could go on. The roman campaign! the Camelot random encounter table (with elements taken from disney rather than gary gygax)! The nun and the hare!
The best part of this book is that in spite of its rich, detailed material, much is left mysterious: it is both strange and vivid.
Or to put this slightly differently: this is the Pendragon dungeon masters guide. I find it difficult to imagine playing the game without it.

Long Live the King

One of my favourite features of the Pendragon system is the passing of time. Your characters grow older, get married, have kids and eventually reach such a state of infirmity that you are forced to retire them and start playing their children instead. However, even with a year passing every few game sessions it is hard to see many campaigns lasting for the full 80 years captured in the "Boy King". This resource is a vital tool for any GM who wants to run a campaign based around the life of Arthur. It is much more than just a timeline and contains a wealth of information to flesh out the (mythical) world of 6th century Britain.
