Those Guys Have All the Fun: Inside the World of ESPN
ESPN began as an outrageous gamble with a lineup that included Australian Rules Football, rodeo, and a rinky-dinky clip show called Sports Center. Today the empire stretches far beyond television into radio, magazines, mobile phones, restaurants, video games and more, while ESPN's personalities have become global superstars to rival the sports icons they cover.
In volume two of The Warlord Chronicles, Cornwell presents a gripping tale of Arthur and Merlin, as well as other familiar personalities of Arthurian legend. Pigott-Smith's gravelly voice reflects the character of the grizzled veteran of Arthur's retinue who writes these tales and reminiscences for future generations and for Queen Igraine. The bloodcurdling adventures, intrigue and wars are brought to life by Pigott-Smith, who captures the flavor and fabled personalities of this time before written history.
