5.0 out of 5 stars wonderful, Jun 16 2004
By Krista Casada - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Pendragon Cycle/3 Arthur (Paperback)
This is a powerful story on several levels, and has earned its place on my shelf. Personally I've enjoyed Lawhead's ability to write from several points of view, though I guess that's basically a matter of taste. Also, he presents an Arthur we can both admire and empathize with. And it's easy to cherish this glimpse of a world where love and integrity are such active forces.

5.0 out of 5 stars What is "A bit flat"? Certainly not this book., Mar 1 2002
This review is from: Arthur: Book Three Of The Pendragon Cycle (Mass Market Paperback)
I'd just like to point out that Arthur could not have incestuous sex with his sister: he had no sister! Morgian was the step-sister of Charis, she was the youngest child of the King of Atlantis! I also agree with the reviewer who pointed out that this is set, not in the middle ages, but in the 6th century. At this point, Arthur had no established capital. No Camelot, no established court, no court intrigue, and Gwenhwyvar's protector may or may not have been Lancelot Du Lac, who was a knight of France, not Ireland. Lawhead brings in a great historical perspective with the true setting and the Gaelic names. I love how he, in the series, connects legends from all over the classical world. He perfectly fuses the Mediterranean stories of Atlantis with the Gaelic and Celtic myths about Taliesin, the Greatest bard who ever lived... the characterization is wonderful. Merlin really comes alive, because he's not just an old wizard in a pointy hat, he's a man who was born from a union of two great cultures. You see him live and love, you see him suffer. He's a real person, as are all the characters. Morgian is evil, but she is beautiful, and seductive. She's a mother. Arthur isn't the perfect king. He's not the perfect man. He struggles. He loses. This story is anything but flat!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Arthur you'll find, Sep 19 2001
By Patrick Oden (Lake Arrowhead, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Arthur: Book Three Of The Pendragon Cycle (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a tremendous, well-written, well researched book. It is however following a different path than was presented in the classic Morte de Arthur and The Once and Future King (a storyline visually portrayed in Excalibur). There is no incest, no tale of forbidden love between a queen and the best knight. Rather, in avoiding the tales of court intrigue which were so prevalent in the middle ages, Lawhead seeks to tell a story which reveals a more accurate look at life in the 6th century. We see characters as they were in that era, rather than the height of the feudal period. These are Celts, not Normans. This is the story of the later Celts attempting to fight off the invasions of the Saxons and others who sought to topple the peace that Arthur was able to bring by uniting warrring tribes. There is certainly the mystical events and a well crafted spirituality which certainly would have reflected 6th century Wales and England. This book seeks to tell the story of Arthur in his historical context, while still maintaining the fantasy aspects which have made the story so popular. A very nice book, and a welcome relief to the social intrigue that characterizes other tales of Arthur.
