For search-puzzle fans, one reading could be devoted to finding the almost ubiquitous parrot. The book was about King Arthur, and his adventures of war and trouble. He loved storytelling and was fascinated by traditional fairy tales, myths and legends from around the world. Together with Merlin, he constructs a , at which only the best of England may sit. Now, when Uther Pendragon had passed through all the land, and settled it—and even voyaged into all the countries of the Scots, and tamed the fierceness of that rebel people—he came to London, and ministered justice there. Lastly, I liked that the descriptions about what happened were very clear. The story is well laid out, despite the simplified plot lines.

King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table by Sir Thomas Malory

king arthur and the knights of the round table author

This is the centerpiece of Arthurian legend and the table around which Arthur and his knights would congregate in order to have meetings and concoct plans. According to one story, an inscription was found saying that the quest for the Holy Grail a quest discussed at length in the Vulgate must begin 453 years after the resurrection of Jesus. King Arthur, Guinevere, and Sir Lancelot did not really exist, but their names conjure up a romantic image of gallant knights in shining armour, elegant ladies in medieval castles, heroic quests for the Holy Grail in a world of honour and romance, and the court of Camelot at the centre of a royal and mystical Britain. No knight accomplished more difficultdeeds, no kinight saved nore ladies andno knight defended the weak as well as did sir Launcelot. This betrayal of his father is foreshadowed in the appearance of an image of a dragon at St. Arthur and sir Kay were brothers, but they weren't blood brothers.

Anon it befell that the king was seized by a lingering distemper, and the Saxon heathens, taking their occasion, came back from over sea, and swarmed upon the land, wasting it with fire and sword.

As you can see, there is a lot to the King Arthur legend, and the Knights of the Round Table are hugely iconic in popular culture. This gives a rough date for when King Arthur supposedly ruled Camelot.
