The Savage Damsel and the Dwarf
Description
Her castle under siege by an evil knight who keeps beheading all her would-be rescuers, Lady Lynet realizes the only way to get help is to get it herself. So one night she slips away and strikes out for King Arthur’s court where she hopes to find a gallant knight to vanquish the Knight of the Red Lands and free her castle. Gerald Morris’s Arthurian novel is a highly comic tale of hidden identities, mysterious knights, faeries and enchantments, damsels-in-distress, and true love.
|"A perfectly delicious, not entirely serious, reimagining of part of Thomas Mallory’s Le Morte d’Arthur. . . . No previous knowledge of Arthurian legend is required to enjoy this sweetly amusing tale." —Booklist (3/1/00) Booklist, ALA
"A rare action-fantasy title that crosses age and gender lines." --The Bulletin Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
