About this listen

 This is the classic story of the young Theseus - Prince of Troizen, King of Eleusis and Athens, slayer of the Minotaur. Mary Renault's powerful novel captures the modern imagination by weaving myth, legend, history, and fiction into the story of a young hero's search for his destiny, or moira. With divine guidance, Theseus faces countless challenges in his quest for his moira. From Theseus's early life as a prince, to his leadership of a captive team of bulldancers in Crete, not to mention his thrilling encounters with Poseidon, The King Must Die captures the full force of adventure, battle, and an epic quest.©1958 by Mary Renault, Renewed in 1986 (P)1987 by Dove Books on Tape Fantasy Fiction Historical Fiction LGBTQ2S+ Literary Fiction Literature & Fiction Royalty King Ancient Greece Exciting Greek Mythology

Should have checked the length.

I have just discovered that I inadvertently bought an abbreviated version of one of my favourite books. Michael York's voice is wonderful, but I wanted the whole book. I wish that it indicated more clearly that this was not the complete book - I rarely check the length.
