Man that list is getting longer every day.

I like twists on the story.

Tolstoi wrote a book about Arthur? haven't read that one either.

I've read the Cornwell books about Arthur - pretty good too.

Mamie

If you like twists on the legend then you'll like "The Return of King Arthur". It was worth the money I spent on it anyways

Lightbulb merlin...

some of my friends really liked, while the others hated the tv version...i didn't see it...

'the mist of avalon' is more enjoyable for me to read than watch. i didn't see the very end of the movie because some stupid drunk driver an electric receptor and took out the power in my neighborhood for a few hours...

anyone see 'a knight's tale' with heath ledger? i liked it and the soundtrack is pretty good, too. not to mention heath is very yummy....

gotta say,,,

Mary Stewart's trilogy, The Crystal Cave, The Hollow Hills and The Last Enchantment are fantastic! Then toss in her Mordred book The Wicked Day and you will be a happy biblioholic!
