The story of King Arthur.
Review:
I read this when I was rather young, I enjoyed it immensely. I believe it is the sole reason I have so much love for historical fiction. This book will have you laughing (I am pretty sure it is where the witty Merlin we see in cartoons came from) and crying. All of the characters in Arthur's life are brilliantly crafted and we get to see Arthur grow as a person. I also really enjoyed the relationships between Arthur, Guinevere and Lancelot. It is one of those books you can read over and over again. I recommend it to anyone who likes the Arthur legend and wants to know more about it.
8/10
10/10
“The bravest people are the ones who don’t mind looking like cowards.”
“You run a grave risk, my boy," said the magician, "of being turned into a piece of bread, and toasted.”
