In a time when there were damsels in distress to save and mythical dragons to slay, King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table were there to render justice in the face of any danger. From the incredible wizardry of Merlin to the undeniable passion of Sir Launcelot, these tales of Arthur and his knights offer epic adventures with the super-natural as well as timeless battles with our own humanity.
Keith Baines’ splendid rendition of Le Morte d’Arthur faithfully preserves the original flavor of Malory’s masterpiece— that of banners and bloodshed, knights and ladies, Christians and sorcerers, sentiment and savagery. It remains a vivid, medieval tapestry woven about a central figure who symbolizes the birth of an age of chivalry.
"Le Morte d’Arthur remains an enchanted sea for the reader to swim about in, delighting at the random beauties of fifteenth-century prose.”—Robert Graves
