First review: A delightful mockery of the ideals of knightly courtesy as well as feminine and masculine roles-- all in Gerald Morris's fantastically wry tone. My introduction to Roger the dwarf gave rise to one of my last imaginary pals, and Lynet is the Bella that should have been. And as for Beaumains- One can only wish that Edward would take a page out of his book! Clever, occasionally trite, but really interesting. I knew the story, so I ignored all the clues, which turned out to be a mistake, as the story was slightly enhanced. The author makes some interesting remarks about his sources in the afterword. It should be interesting to read more about Lancelot's development from the deeply annoying person, but brilliant jouster of the previous books. no reviews | add a review

Although the books are sold as juvenile, this story left me even more with the impression that they would appeal more to adults. ( )
