Contained within are a rich feast of Arthurian love stories and tales that delve deep into the darker mysteries of the Great Wood and the denizens of fantastic lands beyond.
Here also is a heady mixture of magic, faery lore, wisdom and mystery?capturing extraordinary tales of Camelot's greatest knights, such as Sir Lancelot and Sir Gawain, and others less well known, and soaring from high adventure to mystical accounts of the Grail. There is even an Arthurian Christmas tale
These stories honor the work of Thomas Malory in his legendary Le Morte D'Arthur. They are dramatically brought to life by the luminous paintings and drawings of internationally acclaimed Tolkien artist, John Howe. With an introduction by Sir John Boorman, director of the classic film Excalibur, Realms of the Round Table is a glorious reimagining of the most influential work of English fantasy ever written that will surprise and capture anyone who has ever been enchanted by tales of Camelot.
