This is the second book in Cornwell's Arthurian Saga. Derfel, continues his narration giving unflattering views of early Christians, Lancelot and Guinevere, and a very different view of Arthur and his knights. A must read for those who who follow the Arthurian legends. Cornwell has stated that this is his favorite series. I find it a bit verbose and slow (at times) but appreciate the fine crafting of a alternate view of early England's life and times.
