lady of lake is waiting for him. Before leaving,Arthur said, But the day will come
when I shall return to England.And with my return will come peace,and war shall be
no more. And with these words the great King Arthur dissapear
I'll admit, at first I was confused. When I think of King Arthur, I imagine a young boy
pulling a sword from a stone and became a King. During that time, he chooses one
hundred knights to serve under his command And these brave knights join him at
the round table.
A few chapters in, I was finally clear with what was going on. I realized that King
Arthur we know were only 'tales' in this story as well because I think that is
imposible to having a great sword that in this book called Exalibur.Maybe this is only
my opinion,But for those who having interest about the tale of King Arthur Im
recommended to you to read this novel because this novel lead you to the most
detail about King Arthur life,from hes born,received the greatest sword
Exaliber,leaved by Merlin,Betrayed by his own nephew where this are the beginning

of the end of the round table where he said that he will come back whenever his
country in needs and Dissapeared.
