The legend of King Arthur gets a feminist twist with a Christian slant. Melodramatic as all these epic legend type books tend to be, the reconsidering the legend from an unexpected perspective was, however, novel. No where near as compelling as George RR Martin's first two books in his series "A Song of Fire and Ice," but not terrible either if you like this sort of thing. I had it on my to-read list for a while, and am glad to have checked it off, but that's about it.
