Somewhat original "take" on the Arthurian legend, tying together the Greco-Roman and Britannic myths. Somewhat disjointed style, trying to be serious and comic, adult and youth.
This was an enjoyable book -- with many outside influences spun into an Arthurian setting. But -- I put it down several times to finish other things, and I think I would have enjoyed it more had I read it all the way through. Momentum can never be undervalued.
