He unlocked the magic within the sword Excalibur, and won the heart of the Lady Guenever. At his side through quests and adventures were the Knights of the Round Table--among Gawain, who faced certain death at the hands of the Green Knight; Percival, who learned that it took more than a victory on horseback to win a place at the Round Table; and Lancelot, who daily felt a passion he was forced to hide. And over them all ruled Arthur, true King. . . . <p/>Stands far beyond any Arthurian collection for young readers.--<i>Times Literary Supplement</i> <p/>Other than Malory, I can think of no better introduction to the whole sweep of Arthurian stories.--<i>School Library Journal</i>, starred review<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Rosemary Sutcliff wrote more than 40 historical novels for young adults-including <i>The Eagle of the Ninth</i>, <i>The Silver Branch</i>, <i>The Lantern Bearers</i>, <i>The Sword and the Circle</i>, and <i>Black Ships Before Troy</i>-five adult novels, and several books of nonfiction.
