I've never been much interested in the Arthur legend, other than as in *The Once and Future King* and *Camelot,* but Lawhead captures my imagination with his account of Atlantis, the nature of a bard, the interweaving of Roman and Christian history with that of old England, and satisfying interpretations of old mythological ideas. *Merlin* is also good, as a character study, especially, but *Arthur* is too much battle narrated by minor characters, and as I am reading that now I am coming back to my old distaste for the Arthur legend.
