Book Overview

The bestselling author of the acclaimed Merlin Trilogy returns to the magical world of King Arthur and Camelot--to tell a story of daring adventure, unexpected love, and unsurpassed enchantment. . . . ALEXANDER THE FATHERLESS Eager, burning, and young, Alexander has come of age to take vengeance on the treacherous King of Cornwall who murdered his father. He sets off toward Camelot to seek justice from King Arthur, only to be diverted by the beautiful and sensual Morgan le Fay, Arthur's sister. Using her wiles and her enchantments, Morgan persuades the young prince to attempt a theft of the Holy Grail. He is unaware her motives are of the darkest nature. . . . ALICE THE PRETTY PILGRIM Motherless daughter of a royal duke, Alice has lived a life of lively adventure, accompanying her father on his yearly pilgrimages. Now, on her father's final visit to Jerusalem, she comes under the protection of a young prince whose brothers were murdered, a prince who is in possession of an enchanted silver cup believed to be the mysterious Holy Grail itself. Thus the stage is set for two young seekers to meet--and to find not what they are searching for but, instead, the greatest treasure of all . . . love. "A wonderful love story set in the magical times of King Arthur and Camelot." --Oklahoman This description may be from another edition of this product.

GREAT BOOK!!

i have to disagree with those who have said this book is poor, unadventurous, etc. this book is wonderful!!! Mary stewart has done a phenomenal job in writing this book. the two main characters are alexander and alice. one is a prince with a lost kingdom, the other a pilgrim waiting for marriage. this book tells the adventures that both go on, whether to the dark tower of morgan le fay or to Jerusalum, the Holy Land. this book is excellent, i can't wait to read it again!!

A good book and GREAT tale!

Alexander travels trough many obsticals to find the pilgrim Alice, join him as he battles, escapes, and finally meets the pretty pilgrim Alice. This book has good points and bad but in the long run it was a book worth reading. I would probably recommend this book to anyone interested in the middle ages because it takes place then and has lots of information on the holy grail, caliburn, The high king Arthur and middle Aged England.

Good

I thought this was a very sweet book and I enjoyed it a lot. Am I missing something? This is the first and only book of Mary Stewart's I've read. It was very entertaining and the characters were likable and understandable. Maybe this is not a masterpiece, but I very highly recommend it as a feel-good, fun-to-read book. Especially if you don't know much about the Arthurian legends, it's pretty self-explanatory. Definitely, read it.
