For the Arthurians

[wellinghall]

Today's remarkable blurb claim appears in the press release accompanying The Return of Arthur by Alan Fenton (from Dovecote Press, whose website indicates that "clients" pay production costs). "The legendary story of King Arthur and Camelot has been well-documented for centuries but no-one, until now, has retold the Arthurian legend for modern times." The incredulous italics are mine.

Oh, for the Arthurian Society Library List, where such books could be gathered by the handful, if one were so inclined, that is.

sir_dave is not only doing that, he's doing it in verse... as I expect he's probably told you by now!

First prize for being so totally and comprehensively wrong that one wonders if the writer had read, not just that book, but any books at all...

The existence of a website called ansible.co.uk pleases me greatly. Le Guin doesn't have much web presence, by her choice I understand, but it is lovely that one of her words has become so generic.
