I fell in love with this book and it's feminist message that the title character Morgaine sent to readers. The book tells the legend of King Arthur through the eyes of the women who helped place him on the throne. morgaine is portrayed here as being a druid preistess and a herbal healer not a enchantress or witch as most arthurian legends portray her.
i just loved it. Anyone else?

bye-bye

The Mysts of Avalon is the greatist King Arthur novel EVER ! ! ! It has everything! I fell in love with it as soon as i oppened it. It was a little hard to get through at first (that middle 200 pages are hard) but it was so worth it! I recomend Mysts to anyone Pagans especially, the message of the Goddess is clear. But it is also perfect for those King Arthur buffs (you know who you are) who can't put this stuff down.
Every person that i know who has ever read it has LOVED every bit of it.

Peace Love and Butterflies
