*waves tentatively at Lindelea* Psst! Lin? Is this the Paladin I've been waiting for? If so, then I can hardly wait :-)

*waves back* It just might be! Now if I could only find a few minutes to type it in...

Rosemary Sutcliff, after writing of the very human and historically likely Artos in "Sword at Sunset," reverted to writing very Arthurian legend stories more akin to Mallory and Pyle. Am glad you'll allow "another" Paladin out to play.

You know, I haven't read "Sword at Sunset" yet. I'm surprised I missed it when we went through our Arthurian frenzy last year. (We read a whole lot of takes on Arthur, but I think our favourite remains Gerald Morris' Squire's Tales series. He makes the characters very real and human.)

Thanks! It has been fun to re-read LOTR with this story in mind.
