I thought this book was good, but I see why a lot of people are less than fond of it. For one, while I didn't see Morgause's plot coming, it definitely puts a damper on the political intrigue, especially when you consider how far her kingdom is from Camelot. I also did not like that Mordred didn't s...

I'm sure that everyone has at least heard Arthurian Legend: the story of a King of Britain and his wife Guinevere. The story of the Knights of the Round Table and Lancelot have been told time and time again in various forms, but Marion Zimmer Bradley creates a new viewpoint in The Mists of Avalon, t...

I read this first as a teenager in 1986 and was enthralled. I have read it again 4 more times and it still blows me away every time.

Revisited 2/2010Sprawling and desperately in need of an editor, this book is still very close to my heart. Bradley's deep distrust of Christians infuses every word, and her illumination of the dangers of fanaticism of any stripe rings achingly true. There are thousands of versions of the Arthurian l...

I got to Chapter 10 of this brick of a book. What I read I enjoyed, but it was difficult to read just because of the sheer size of the book. I couldn't carry it around and my schedule didn't allow me enough time to read it. Sadly, I had to take it back to the library. But one day I shall try again.

I tried, but couldn't do it. Maybe I'll try again, but it didn't catch my interest in the least. edited summer 2009. I learned something new - while I couldn't drag myself through the paper version, the audio version is pretty good. I also learned that the collection of these audios at the publi...
