"The Singing Sword" is a historical fiction novel written by Jack Whyte, first published in 1993. It is the second novel in "A Dream of Eagles" series. After the Roman armies withdraw from Britain in 395, anarchy threatens the colony that will one day be known as Camelot. Creating their own army and joining with the Celtic people of King Ullic Pendragon, the colonists emerge as a new breed of Britons, ready to forge the government that will be the Round table and its Knights and to prepare the groundwork for the future coronation of Arthur, first High King of Britain.
