arthurianlegendHi,
I'm new here, stumbling upon this community by accident: what a pleasant surprise!
On a basic note, I, like all members in the community, is an avid reader of all Arthurian Legends and such. Although I'm a newbie in this area, I joined in the hope of getting to know this mystical legendary King better and to keep myself updated on news and announcements.
My interest for King Arthur was first aroused when I was hooked onto Rosalind Miles' novel Isolde. I found Isolde to be a graceful and enchanting beauty, and longed to know more about the love between her and Tristan. It was then that I discovered Miles' trilogy, Guenevere, and even till today, the A-G-L love triangle has captured my utmost attention.
As I am pretty new to LJ, this is my first time posting and I do hope I did not bore you by my ramblings. I love to meet new people; feel free to drop me a note or add me to your friends' list. :)

Date: 2003-10-13 10:31 am (UTC)So glad to hear from another "Guenevere" trilogy fan!!!!!!!! I'm a major Gwen fan, and so far I have found Miles' descriptions and insights of her to be my favorite.
Anyways I am home sick today so feel free to IM (KingArthursPiano). That goes for anyone else, too.

Date: 2003-10-13 11:53 am (UTC)i love rosalind miles' writings, particularly the 'Guenevere' trilogy. it's second only to marion zimmer bradley's 'mists of avalon'.
another good one to check out is persia wooley's 'child of the northern springs'. it's the first one of three, about guenevere and her childhood. it's nice to see her in a different light, not just as the weak, kinda featherheaded girl she's often portrayed as.

Date: 2003-10-13 03:22 pm (UTC)I'm currently working my way through Miles', and although I like her character development, for some reason the actual book isn't grabbing me as much as I'd like it to. I'm not used to having to put effort into reading Arthurian books.
