Thanks for the recommendations!<br /><br />Justbookreading - I haven't had the chance to read Elliot's books, but they are on my TBR!<br /><br />Jenny - I picture King Mark differently too, but I liked him well enough! I have heard many different reviews on Miles' books, I will have to think on them.<br /><br />Sorcha - I am definately hoping to get the chance to read them. I didn't really hear about them until this year!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609161113240681299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-45251325275300230652011-09-13T20:40:49.328-04:002011-09-13T20:40:49.328-04:00Anna Elliott's Trystan & Isolde trilogy is...Anna Elliott's Trystan & Isolde trilogy is fantastic and I highly recommend it (Twilight of Avalon, Dark Moon of Avalon, & Sunrise of Avalon) - it is my favourite re-telling/interpretation of the legend to date, and is very well researched.<br />~S.xo.sorcha.oxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17431135816635778553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-30204106191704404882011-09-13T10:16:24.605-04:002011-09-13T10:16:24.605-04:00I saw the movie that you are reviewing tomorrow an...I saw the movie that you are reviewing tomorrow and enjoyed it immensely. Although I always picture King Mark as old and disgusting.<br /><br />There is a trilogy of books about Tristan and Isolde, from Rosalind Miles. The first half of the story was good, but the middle of book 2 to beginning of Book 3 I couldn't take. Never finished it. The characters changed for me, going from strong to weak and then complete bleh.<br /><br />I look forward to your review.Jenny Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04077659644092707107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-85269734500532226092011-09-13T07:36:00.407-04:002011-09-13T07:36:00.407-04:00Tristan and Isolde is a good story although I stil...Tristan and Isolde is a good story although I still prefer Arthur and Guinevere.

Another is Diana Paxson's The White Raven, which puts a different twist on the legend.<br /><br />The scenery in the 2005 film is breathtakingly gorgeous!Sarah Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340312953393474963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-13558537475294599932011-09-12T20:25:59.428-04:002011-09-12T20:25:59.428-04:00Allison - I had wondered the same thing too!
