It didn't make my list of all-time favourites either, but I still liked it a whole lot. I’m so glad you enjoyed the series, Robin!

I got so far behind with my reviews that I'm afraid I'll never catch up. Oh well... I did enjoy this series, although it wasn't my favorite of all time (stiff competition there!). I didn't intend to finish the Arthurian Challenge so quickly (I'm not finishing anything quickly!), but I got caught up in these books and realized they would fit. I still have a bunch of other Arthurian books I'd like to read before the year is up. Rhinoa, yes, that does make me feel better.

Nancy, I haven't seen the movie, although I thought I might order in from Netflix. I'm curious about it... Kailana, it's fun and lightweight -- quick to read (even though I took a long time getting through it all).

I keep saying it, but not actually cracking a spine. I am still reviewing books from like March, so I think you are good! lol I think I might read this, too, for the Arthurian challenge.

Did you see the movie, by any chance? It was awful, IMHO. My son liked it, though. I need to read these, some time. Did you see the movie, by any chance? It was awful, IMHO. My son liked it, though.

I completely missed these books when I was a child and it <i>is</i> a big shame. I'd have loved to have grown up with these books. *rambles* Of course now I’m curious which of the five was your favourite… ^-~ (I’m looking forward to midwinter at the set time where I can reread this.)
