Rating:
A-
This is the first in a trilogy by Mary Stewart about the Arthur saga (knights of the round table and all that). It's more comprehensive than "The Once and Future King", both are worth reading. Mary Stewart writes the saga from the point of view of Merlin in the first three books, and the point of view of Mordred, Arthur's bastard son, in the fourth book. Excellent realism which is easy to trace out the legend that followed. Highly recommended.
Purchasing tip: you can pick up the first three in as one volume for much cheaper (click here).
