Lancelot: Tales of King Arthur (Books of Wonder)
In the golden days of Camelot, no celebrated warrior could match the fighting skill and brilliance of Lancelot. Orphaned as an infant and raised by a powerful enchantress, the youth's extraordinary instinct in battle shines bright from his earliest years -- and so he is readily welcomed into the company of the Round Table, King Arthur's highest order of knights.
Seeking to bring peace to Arthur's kingdom, Lancelot earnestly serves all those in peril in the name of the beloved Queen Guinevere, swiftly vanquishing beasts and villains and even rescuing the queen herself Nothing, it seems, can harm the valiant Lancelot -- until his own pride drives him away from Arthur's court. Setting off for mysterious new lands, he soon meets a princess who will change his life forever. But will the great hero ever return to Camelot?
Hudson Talbott vividly reveals Lancelot as a man whose passion and instinct are at once the sources of his greatest strength and gravest danger. Rendered with all of the breathtaking drama and romance of the first three volumes in, the Tales of King Arthur series, here is a rare vision of one of the most popular and compelling heroes of Arthurian legend.
