Synopsis
The Grey King is a children's fantasy novel by Susan Cooper which was awarded the Newbery Medal for excellence in American children's literature in 1976. It is the fourth of five stories in her young adult Arthurian fantasy cycle, The Dark Is Rising. Elements of Welsh folklore, albeit freely adapted or re-invented by the author, play an important role in the book.
