Enter a world of duels and jousting, where knights battle to protect the honor of fair maidens and defend King Arthur's castle. Knights meet in fellowship at Camelot, and are entertained with feasting and pageantry. Honor and chivalry are valued above all else, and courageous knights fight strange, unearthly foes to prove themselves worthy of a place at King Arthur's table.
These ancient tales have been told since the fifth century when Welsh bards traveled the country entertaining lords and ladies with stories and songs. They were retold in verse by Chretien de Troyes in his twelfth-century Le Morte d'Arthur, and in prose by Sir Thomas Malory in the fifteenth century.
Now, renowned storyteller Isabel Wyatt presents her own fresh retelling of a selection of these fascinating legends.
'Wyatt's knack for addressing a young audience is exceptional. She tells the great legends with a simple tone but manages to maintain the wide-eyed awe for these stories that any storyteller must have in order to hold an audience in thrall. Legends of King Arthur is one of those rare books that remain fresh and memorable for generations.'
