Summary: Fairy Tale Story of Minor Arthurian Characters
Comment: Mary Stewart who wrote one of the best Arthurian stories in her Merlin Trilogy, has highlighted the story of Alisander and Alice, who were very minor characters from the one of the oldest Arthurian legends. The story has the feel of a fairy tale and runs around the periphery of the original tale. If you are interested in Arthurian literature and want to know more about a couple barely mentioned in Malory, then I would suggest that you read this book, but don't expect the depth of other Stewart stories

Summary: Prince
Comment: Although not quite as interesting as the Merlin series, Prince and the Pilgram was entertaining and a worthwhile read.

Summary: A Weak Plant From a Potent Seed
Comment: Stories involving King Arthur and sundry acts of chivalrous derring 'do have always entertained me, so I was heartily disappointed in Stewart's novel, a return to the world of her Merlyn trilogy. Honestly, it seems like she simply ran out of gas or out of time. The novel sets up nicely, with two different plot threads that promise an epic resolution. Instead, the two main characters miraculously meet, fall in love and save the day, all in the space of about 90 pages. You know you are in trouble when you are reading a novel about the holy grail and one of the characters scoffs that it isn't the real holy grail, all the other characters agree, and everyone moves on. Yikes! I think Merlyn is rolling over in his crystal cave.
