I have absolutely loved these books since I first read them in childhood. I still find elements of them disturbing and upsetting to this day. And yet they are beautiful and wonderful, and I adore the main characters (my son's middle name is William, but to me it's Will) Anyway, for some reason the story name had slipped my mind, and I was reminded of it, so I embarked on re reading the books, after many years. Im happy to report that they're just as wonderful now at the age of 53 as they were at 12. I've not started to read the last yet, because I have that "i don't want to get to the end" feeling. I'd love to hear recommendations for other books by the author Review: Top stuff - Always loved Book 2 as a boy and it’s still a big favourite, but it’s like the series also gets stronger book by book. Marvellous stuff. Rich in mythology and Welsh too! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 1,858,039 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 417 in Fantasy Fiction About Wizards & Witches for Young Adults 805 in Fantasy for Children 3,370 in Literature & Fiction for Children (Books) | | Book 4 of 5 | The Dark Is Rising | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,240) | | Dimensions | 12.9 x 1.7 x 19.8 cm | | ISBN-10 | 1849412723 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1849412728 | | Item weight | 192 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 272 pages | | Publication date | 30 Sept. 2010 | | Publisher | Red Fox | | Reading age | 9 - 11 years | ## Images ![The Grey King - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Vp8ZGbOOL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome fantasy, as good re reading it 40 years on *by E***N on 25 October 2025* Part of the classic Dark is Rising sequence, this is one of the darker stories. I have absolutely loved these books since I first read them in childhood. I still find elements of them disturbing and upsetting to this day. And yet they are beautiful and wonderful, and I adore the main characters (my son's middle name is William, but to me it's Will) Anyway, for some reason the story name had slipped my mind, and I was reminded of it, so I embarked on re reading the books, after many years. Im happy to report that they're just as wonderful now at the age of 53 as they were at 12. I've not started to read the last yet, because I have that "i don't want to get to the end" feeling. I'd love to hear recommendations for other books by the author ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top stuff *by S***K on 4 May 2025* Always loved Book 2 as a boy and it’s still a big favourite, but it’s like the series also gets stronger book by book. Marvellous stuff. Rich in mythology and Welsh too! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ fantasy.....in Wales *by B***D on 26 June 2011* This is a good novel, well written that keeps you wanting more. The story is easy to follow and on the whole, the book is easy to read. It says it is suitable for 12 years + which I would say is about right (although I am a bit older...by about 30 years!). There is a bit of "darkness" involved and given that it takes place in our own British surroundings, some younger children might find it a bit disturbing. I bought this book in my search for a story I read at the age of about 10-12, that I wanted to share with my son; I am not sure this is the one, but I have enjoyed reading it nonetheless. I hope you find this useful. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/63828479-the-grey-king](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/63828479-the-grey-king) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
