“You are more than noble,” she said. Her voice was soft and made me think of wild roses, as did the softness of her pale pink mouth, as did her fragrance, light and fresh and free. “You are a king’s son.”

The Road to Camlann. The Death of King Arthur
AuthorRosemary Sutcliff
ISBN0525440186
This book is lovely, too. I didn't quite cry, really, but there was a certain tight ache in my throat at certain points. The bittersweetness is much closer to the bitter than the sweet in this book, but thankfully I didn't feel like I had to hate any character for the way they treated the others -- they were...

For Camelot's Honor
AuthorSarah Zettel
ISBN0373802188
Camelot’s Honour might be my favourite of the quartet, now that I think about it. Okay, Camelot’s Shadow has Gawain, and the clever weaving together of the story of the Green Knight and the story of the Loathly Lady… but this is the most Welsh-inspired book of the quartet, including characters...
The Kingmaking
AuthorHelen Hollick
I was pleasantly surprised! To me, before I read this book, King Arthur without fantasy was unthinkable. I found straight historical fiction King Arthur sans fantasy was very enjoyable. So I think I will try Cornwell, besides continuing with this trilogy. However, I think there is a place for both treatments...
