First Knight,
By Becky Lee (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: First Knight: A Novelization (Paperback)
The legend of King Arthur finds new meaning in this powerful romantic novel. When Guinevere, Lady of Leonesse, finds herself desperate for protection for both herself and her people from an ex-Knight of the Round Table, she turns to King Arthur to save them all.Guinevere's decision - to marry the king, leads her into danger and intrigue as she begins the wildest journey of her life. When Lancelot saves an unknown lady in the forest, both their hearts become engaged. Lancelot becomes a friend and trusted confidant to the King, and Guinevere becomes Arthur's wife. While fighting to keep their love at bay, war threatens to tear them apart forever. Chadwick's love of re-enactment becomes apparent in this wonderful story of forbidden love. She describes everything in such striking detail; the reader can almost smell the stench of burning straw or feel the adrenaline and fear accompanying battle. This book is a must read, though not quite as powerful as many of Chadwick's other novels.

What came first, the book or the movie?,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: First Knight: A Novelization (Paperback)
If you've seen the movie, you don't need to read the book, and if you've read the book you probably don't need to see the movie -- they are virtually identical. It's like the proverbial horse before the cart, I don't know which came first, the book or the movie. From the promo on Amazon, I suspect the movie, and they decided a book would be a nice way to "enhance" the profits. Either way, this is not a typical Chadwick book, there is no sense of time travel to another century for the weekend whilst reading her book. Only for die hard Chadwick fans(and I am one), or die hard fans of this movie. Otherwise, skip this.

Exactly like the movie,
By Jenna Moore "Jem" (Michgian, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: First Knight: A Novelization (Paperback)
If you liked the movie, you'll like the book. They are almost exactly the same. It's written well but not in traditional Elizabeth Chadwick style...more movie script. I highly recommend her other books that are NOT based on a Hollywood movie.
