The Once and Future King - A Timeless Tale
The Once and Future King T.H. White This is the story of Camelot and the Knights of the Round Table. King Arthur, Guenivere, Sir Lancelot, Merlin, Mortimer, Uther Pendragon, King Pellinore, and the list goes on and on. Each one of these characters represents something. Virtue and vice. Love and Hate. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Merlin lived backwards, he knew Arthur's future but not his past….
Guenevere loved two men, truly loved two men. It's the story of war and peace, loyalty and betrayal, kings and serfs, wealth and poverty, truth and deception. A childless marriage and a child born out of wedlock. It’s the chronicle of Arthur’s life starting with the sword in the stone and ending with the demise of the infamous round table.
A table that had no head, everyone who sat at the table was of equal value with the man who sat next to him. Might for right, right for might, the inevitable and timeless battle of right and wrong, good and evil. This book is timeless.
