Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing story!
King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table is the best book i`ve ever read! Right when you`re done you`ll hear swords banging together in your head! It`s from King Arthur being crowned king all the way to saving Camelot and the last battle of the land of Logres. I highly recommend it.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table
A book so good you'll hear the clash of armour and the cries of knights. This book has just the right touch of everything of midevil times. From Arthur became king, to the creation of the round table, to the quest of the holy grail, and finally the departure of Arthur. Roger Lancelyn Green has nailed it again for a great book. This book should be read from 10 and up. Thats how great this book is.

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Not Free SF Reader
Fun kids version of the knightly version of Arthur.


Green here puts together some of the major components of the Arthurian legend in its knights, armour and wizards version to make it accessible to younger readers, and does rather a good job it.

Lots of good stuff here for the younger crowd.






Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Good introduction to courtly age
Dozens of tales comprise the legend of King A. This author compiles about 23 and fashions them into a cohesive story, showing the rise of King A., the age of the glory of his realm, the quest for the Holy Grail, and the realm's fall. Most of the tales are episodic; they can stand on their own, as well as a functioning part of the legend. Everyone's favorite knights are here: Launcelot, Galahad, Gareth, Tristam, Percivale, evil Sir Mordred, and dumb Sir Kay. Also, the ladies: Queen Guin, Morgana le Fay, Enid, and Blanchefleur. My favorite Knight is Sir Gawain, and favorite tale is that of him and his Lady Ragnell. Well laid out, an easy read, and a good introduction to the courtly age.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - King Arthur and His Knights of The Round Table
This book is full of adventures of the many Knights of the Round Table. The stories are in full detail of their quests to serve King Arthur and the people of Logres. It describes their victories as well as their defeats.
A moral the story teaches is that if we blind ourselves with what is wrong and sinful, we will not get to be our full potential. We learn this by watching how Sir Launcelot lives his life. He was the greatest Knight in the world and was admired by every damsel in the land. Sir Launcelot was supposed to be the Knight to recover the Holy Grail and he never does this, because he allows himself to be involved in a sinful relationship with Queen Guinevere, King Arthur's Queen.
My favorite Knight was Sir Galahad, who was Sir Launcelot's son. Sir Galahad alone was the only one worthy to drink from the Holy Grail.
The book has a great story and I recommend it to anyone who loves medieval tales.
