And yes,I'm still looking for arthurian recs. These are the author I read (or know about and want to read): White, Cornwell, Gerald Morris, Jack Whyte, Zimmer Bradley, Bradshaw, Wein, Phyllis Ann Karr, Godwin, David Peter, Joan Wolf, Stewart, Baldry Cherith, C. Fisher, Sutcliff, Nancy McKenzie, Peter Hanratty, Steinbeck, Twain, Tennyson, Douglas Clegg, Sarah Zettel, Thomas Berger, Catherine Christian, Lowder, Cochran Molly, McDowell.
Do you know other good arthurian author/book?
And I heard about the novel "The Pendragon" (Christian Catherine) and "Arthur Rex" (Berger Thomas)... I was wondering how are these books because I read wonderful reviews on amazon.
The last question: How is the character of Mordred in the Squire's series of Gerald Morris?

Okay, so a few Arthurian novels have been published since I last did a search for them, which was back in the 1970s. To save me the trouble of weeding through all of them, could you folks recommend me your favorite novels, with your reasons for why you like them? (Online fic recommendations are welcome too, but take into account that I prefer stories that are novellas or novels.)

First, what I've already read, with my favorites asterisked. Read more... )

You'll gather from this that I prefer Dark Ages Arthurian novels, but I won't scorn a good High Middle Ages novel (*points at T. H. White*).

Anyone have, or know where I can find, a "definitive" list of books on Arthuriana? Fiction and non-fiction, please.

I've already read "Morte d'Arthur" (Malory) , the "Avalon" series (MZB), "The Enchantresses" (Vera Chapman) and "The Child Queen"/"The High Queen" (Nancy MacKenzie)... Now I need more!

Answers on a postcard please!

I'm going to start a new project. I'm going to create a King Arthur project/scrapbook. It's going to have pictures, information, artwork, and much more all about the tale of King Arthur and everything involved. I need some more ideas though! I made a list of everything I plan to include. If you could give me more ideas or some links to helpful websites, I'd be much obliged! I'm going to put everything in a large 3-ring binder. I'll put everything on paper and then sheathe them in those plastic paper covers and put them in the binder so it stays nice.
Here are my ideas so far:

-Descriptions + pictures of all the Arthurian characters
-Descriptions + pictures of all the objects (Excalibur, the Round Table, etc.)
-Information about the time period
-"Interviews" with the characters
-Tabloid-like news stories about "scandals in Camelot"
-Drawings and artwork of everything King Arthur related
-Heritage, tribes, races of the time (Roman, Celtic, Picts, etc.)
-Movie reviews of all the King Arthur films (most of which suck, I must say)
-Book list
-Religion information
-Tangible objects to attach/include
-Parallel tales: Tristan and Isolde, Lady of Shalott, maybe include JFK's "Camelot"
-Music lyrics to Arthur songs; poetry
-Maybe have some friends dress up and have photos taken
-Geography, castles, Arthurian places
-Info, theories about Camelot
-The holy grail

So that's what I have so far. Can anyone think of some other ideas? Some fun things, like my tabloid and interview ideas? Also, if you know of any poetry, music, and artwork that I can include PLEASE let me know! I know a lot of the artwork, but I could use all the help I could get! Thank you so much! :)
