Rating: Summary: Gerald Morris ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! Review: This is my favorite book of all time. One of Gerald Morris's best books it is a definite good read. A story full of humor anyone who loves reading Camelot stories should read this book. It's a book that all ages should read.
Rating: Summary: A reeeeaaaaally, reeeeeaaaally great book!!!!! Review: This is NOT your average knight-in-shining-armor/damsel-in-distress book AT ALL!!! It is a funny,witty,suspensful,keep-you-guessing Arthurian tale. It's about a plucky girl who goes on a quest to save her sister from an in-love knight. The characters are endless: Lynet,Lyonesse,Roger,Beaumains...and so many more! Some even have a hidden identity! I LOVE this book;it deserves 100 stars!
Rating: Summary: YES! Review: This is probably one of my most favorite Arthurian times novels. Read it. Trust me. That being said, how about I break into the review? This is about a free-spirited young lady named Lynet *cough* go, girl power! *cough* that gets fed up with her beautiful, yet stupid, sister and her uncle and decides to travel to Camelot to get a knight to challenge the knight that's besieging her family's castle, trying to win her sister's heart. On her way there, she meets up with a dwarf. The dwarf is a pretty nice guy... he leads her to Camelot and then disappears. (Don't worry though- he'll come into play later.) Since her father had acted in a war against Arthur before, she decided to come anonymous into the court. Being anonymous, she couldn't get any proper knight... just a poor, lowly serving boy who is actually a knight in disguise. Yada yada, she falls in love with the guy (she calls him Beaumains) and she meets up with Roger, the little dwarf man, again. Beaumains is valiant, defeats a lot of knights, gets wounded, and is tended by his loving nurse, Lynet. They travel to the castle to rescue Lyonesse (Lynet's beautiful sister) and, unfortuantely, Mr. Beau falls in love with her. Yup- turns out he's a womanizer who falls in love with anyone with a pretty face. *Sob, sob*. Poor Lynet. BUT- ALL IS NOT YET LOST. Remember Mr. Dwarf-Man? Turns out he's- And that's where I leave off. If you want to find out what happens, then you gosh well better read it. You won't be sorry!
Rating: Summary: Phenomenal! Review: This ranks in the top two of my list of favorite books, and I'm pretty much a bookworm. The book is relatively short, easy to read, but each page is filled with magic and humor to create an absolute tour-de-force. The characters are excellently portrayed, right down to Roger's sarcastic remarks and Gareth's knightlier-than-thou speeches. I was laughing page after page and of course, being the hopeless romantic that I am, the book had the perfect ending. I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone - if you don't have it, buy it now! :)
Rating: Summary: Great Book! Review: This was the first book I ever read by Gerald Morris and it's what got me to read the others. I loved Lynet, with her fiery temper, bravery, and humor. Roger was hilarious though I though that beumains guy was a dork. Lyonesse was a grade A ditz. I loved this book and all the others. I hope he writes more!
Rating: Summary: You have to read this one Review: When I first picked this book up I was a little wary about whether or not it was a book for me. I had picked it up several times before but always put it back, but this time I decided to read it. I absolutely loved it. It has since then opened up a whole new area books to me. You don't have to know anything about Arthurian legends to enjoy this book, or have read Gerald Morris' other books to understand what is going on (though I suggest you do because the are wonderful too). Lady Lynet is not your typical damsel in distress; in fact she is the farthest thing from it. She and her family (her sister Lyonesse, and their uncle) are being held captive in there own castle by an evil knight, who is slaying every knight who tries to free them in the hope that Lyonesse will marry him. Lyonesse as a side note and be described as the damsel in distress. She makes you think of a modern airhead with no cares for anything except herself. Eventually Lynet escapes and travels to Camelot to ask the king to send them a real knight to save them. Along the way she meets a strange dwarf named Roger, who appears to have some secrets of his own, and he assists her in her journey. Once in Camelot she meets Beaumains who decides he will journey back to Lynet's home to be their defender. In this witty rendition of the classic legend the reader will be spellbound by the humour and story that raises the question; what is true honour?
Rating: Summary: I do loveth this book greatly! Review: Wow! This book is really amazing and I read it nearly once a week. If you like fantasy or mythology, you should definitely read this. I've read the first two books in the series, and this one is just as good. I love anything about medieval times and knights and stuff, but this book was better than most. I especially liked the Pink Knight and his four colorful brothers. They were really funny! Anyway, this book is perfect if you like The Book of Three or Dealing with Dragons, or books like that. Just read this book immediately!
