This fascinating book is the tale about the life of Galahad, son of Lancelot, and his achievements in trying to save Britain and its ancient fort, after which the book is called, Camelot.

The book contains at the beginning a well-drawn map of Britain 10 years after Arthur and two excerpts from Gildas and Prior Drustanus, while at the back you can find an Author's Note with historical details concerning this great story, and not to forget a list of important Dramatis Personae.

Story-telling is of a superb quality, very touching and poetic, all characters are believable and lifelike, and the atmosphere of Britain during the transition from Briton towards Saxon power of rule come superbly off the pages.

The book is titled after the famous legendary stronghold called, Camelot, although it does not figure very much in this tale, while the narrator is the main protagonist of this wonderful story, his name is, Galahad, son of Lancelot.

The story begins with Galahad dreaming about his father's demise at the Great Battle at Camlan, when in the main story as a young boy at the monastery at Ynys Wydryn, he's attacked by Saxons twice, firstly he'll be saved by the woman-warrior, Iselle, alone, and secondly he's helped again by the same, Iselle, his protector at the monastery, Brother Yvain, and by Gawain and other of Arthur's warriors, who have come to take Galahad away from there, and so leaving the Brothers of the Thorn, with the likes of, Brice, Junot and some others to their brutal fates and deaths.

And so the quest begins for Galahad, son of Lancelot, Iselle, daughter of Arthur and Guinevere, Gawain, Gediens, Yvain and Parcefal, to find Arthur and Guinevere, and of course Merlin, in the hope to restore the old ways of the Britons with Arthur at their head, in an effort to wipe the Saxons back into the Morimaru, but whether they will succeed in the end or not, or that something else will happen is for you reader to find out by reading this fabulous legendary book.

Highly recommended, for this is a wonderful return to the mythes and legends concerning the ancient fort and stronghold, Camelot, and all its important people involved, whether they are Britons or Saxons, and to come back to this book I like to call it: "A Mighty Great Camelot (Galahad) Retelling"!
