5.0 out of 5 stars Sub-Roman Britain, April 6, 2007

This review is from: Warriors of Arthur (Paperback)

Excellent book, gives plenty of information on the basics of Arthurian myth, on Britain and the Celts under Rome and in the early Dark Ages, and the role the historical Arthur might have played in the wars against the Picts and Saxons. The book also have several rewritten versions of Arthurian legends with their origin pagan Welsh names and themes, such as the 'Beheading Game' that led to the legend of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and the champion Lugh Strong-Arm who inspired the myth of Sire Launcelot. Also has detailed and colorful artwork to support both the stories and the main text. Highly recommended!

This is an interesting perspective of ancient times. It goes well with the "Avalon" books. Fun reading to relax and enjoy.
