My recommendation to a friend would come with this qualification: they must know no Arthurian tales written before the time of Sir Thomas Malory. Neither must they expect anything like the current crop of pseudo-Celtic woman-empowering fantasy. Imagine instead T H White meeting Mickey Spillane. I must confess myself disappointed. For character the author has given us exaggeration and the "easy out" of melodrama. I had hoped the novelty of the detective story would bring out new aspects of the old personalities, but Arthur is Malory's feeble tyrant, Guenivere is the helpless Victorian heroine and Mordred a misunderstood delinquent who would be quite at home in Bernstein's West Side Story. Kay is very much the frustrated stooge the chivalrous middle ages made him out to be. Apart from the historical detail of the preservation of fruit during the off-season, what the book does best is show how an author who cannot make good people interesting copes: by making all her characters flawed, and the reader disenchanted.
