<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> Retold out of the old romances, this collection of Arthurian tales endeavors to make each adventure--"The Quest for the Round Table, " "The First Quest of Sir Lancelot, " "How the Holy Grail Came to Camelot, " and so forth--part of a fixed pattern that effectively presents the whole story, as it does in Le Morte D'Arthur, but in a way less intimidating to young readers. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>They're Puffin Classics for a reason, it's because they're the best. <p/>Step up to the Round Table and join the knights of the Realm! <p/></b>King Arthur is one of the greatest legends of all time.

One of the greatest legends of all time, with an inspiring introduction by David Almond, award-winning author of Clay, Skellig, Kit's Wilderness and The Fire-Eaters. <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> Roger Lancelyn Green was born in 1918 and lived in Oxford and at his family home in Cheshire, which the Greens had owned for more than 900 years.
