A passable entertainment, not the best rationalized Arthurian myth, which is Sutcliff's "The Sword at Sunset". this is an omnibus volume containing three novels.

As the sun tipped the eastern reaches of the forest and fired the pewter sea to silver at the far end of the valley the May morning was full of song.

(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)Merlin laid his hand gently on the neck of the shivering hound, speaking softly to it as the rain gathered fast in the bowl of the chalice on the ground at his side.
