Books are my passion

I might have told you before, but I wanted to say it again because I am inspired by the literature-related LJ post from one person on my friend list

That is beautiful. It's not a book I've heard of before, but I may just look it out.

Thanks for sharing, and hey! how are you?

Im just fine since these stressful days of moving are gone. Still un-packing stuff, but much more relaxed now. Thanks for asking, dear, may I ask how you are in turn ? :)

This book is indeed beautifully written. It has such a simple language but during the whole book it is this simplicity that strikes directly into the heart. The legend of King Arthur and the Knight of the Round Table is a story told uncountable times, but this is written from the POV of Mordred, his son and therefore different than many others. Unfortunately, this book is not very popular. I think it deserves a lot more attention. Therefore I highly recommend it =)

I loved it too! ;)

It is such a wonderful book, isn't it ? Not a very classical take on the Arthurian legend but it is exactly this what makes this book so great.
