2.King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table by: Sir Thomas Malory 1977-05
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $4.00
King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table is the best book i`ve ever read! Right when you`re done you`ll hear swords banging together in your head! It`s from King Arthur being crowned king all the way to saving Camelot and the last battle of the land of Logres. I highly recommend it.

3.King Arthur & His Knights (Children's Classics) by: Sir Thomas Malory October 13, 1987
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.38
King Arthur and His Knights by Sir James Knowles is a nicely illustrated and approachable version of some of the Arthurian legends, with the younger reader in mind. i.e. Have cool pictures of guys in armor with swords to go along with the writing. As far as that goes, reasonably well done.

4.King Arthur and His Knights: Selected Tales (A Galaxy Book) by: Thomas, Sir Malory July 10, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $28.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price:
This nice collection of tales of King Arthur and his knights of the table round is a wonderful reading for anyone concerned with the history of western civilization and the thought that helped shape it. The book begins with Merlin, and really King Uther Pendragon and the wife of the Duke of Cornwall, Igraine, and the conception of one King Arthur. Following are tales of knight errantry, profiles of brave souls such as Guinevere, Arthur, Merlin, and perhaps most notably, Sir Lancelot and his erstwhile beloved Elaine, and their child, Sir Galahad. The tales are highlighted by prophecies, magical kingdoms, chaste maidens and not so chaste queens. These are, of course the christianized versions of these stories, but it is a strange christianity indeed. The eucharist holds no sway here, where instead, ... Read More

5.The Sword and the Circle: King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table by: Rosemary Sutcliff, Thomas, Sir Malory April 18, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $15.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $19.44
I am teaching Sutcliff's The Sword and the Circle to a 7th grade class. I do find the descriptive language incredibly beautiful, and I like how thorough the collection is. However, I'm finding that this book is entirely too difficult for my 7th graders (and they are a bright bunch of kids). I'm frustrated that this book is marketed to such a young audience, because I think it would be more appropriate for high schoolers and for adults. (The Sword and the Circle in the 5th grade?! I'm glad I'm not teaching that class!) Does anyone know of a collection of Arthurian legends that is well written, but more appropriate for a younger audience? I want my kids to get excited about legends, not to find them grueling and tedious.

9.Le Morte D'Arthur: Complete, Unabridged, Illustrated Edition by: Sir Thomas Malory 2003-08
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $57.98
Having enjoyed Arthurian legend in modern retelling, I thought it behove me to go back to an early source. If you are expecting a rousing good story in the style of Mists of Avalon, or Mary Stewarts quartet, or even the Once and future king/The sword in the Stone, you will be quite let down. If you want bare, basic recitation of events (mostly repeating in pattern) then the book is what to expect. What a disappointment. Vast tracts of the story are just about Sir, X,Y or Z encountering Sir A, B, C in some forest, jousting like boars, either killing one, or coming to a gentleman's agreement that the loser go to King Arthur's court. Incredibly tedious, no character generation, England seems spotted by bored knights just looking for a joust with convenient castles just dotted about. At the least the ... Read More
