I'll admit, at first I was confused. When I think of King Arthur, I imagine a young, handsome boy pulling a sword from a stone. I imagine battles with dragons and mythical creatures. I imagine a hundred brave knights at a round table, dutifully serving Arthur, their righteous king.
Yet in the...

I *almost* didn't read this one yet because I found out that it's the third book in a trilogy, and usually I'm really anal about reading books in order. But I thought, It's Arthurian! I know all the characters; how confusing can it be?
It wasn't very confusing. :) Although, I give this book credit...

An interesting retelling of Malory, which is neither medieval nor quite 5th century. While the author is a cultural anthropologist, this "reconstruction" seem more like a fantasy world to me. The Druids definitely come across as the bad guys here, with their human child sacrifices. The love story...

Anthologies are usually hit and miss, but this one was mostly misses, and some of them unbelievably so. There were stories that had zero relevance to the theme, no matter what relevance the author may have thought they had, and others that were simply poorly written -- too cartoonish, making fun of Arthurian...
