Books about/inspired by Arthurian Legends

core texts from the medieval period (anglo and franco focus)

Any books about Britain and King Arthur. These are taken from books I have read, and books I have been recommended, or that inspired similar styles .

All the books I've been asked to read for my English BA, but not necessarily the books I read while doing it (also i did a New Zealand literature paper so a couple of these will be a bit obscure)

I have been a long-time fan of Arthurian lit, to the point that I actually took two separate classes in University that covered themes of Arthurian tales, which also increased my library. These are books I actively own, and most of which I have read or at least used in my writing on the Arthurian Age. I do wish I could make comments on the books themselves, as several of these require a little explanation, but if you have any questions, feel free to leave questions or other book suggestions.

The Shadow on the Horizon “They tell us the world was built for us, but the bones in the earth suggest otherwise. Before the cities, before the kings, there were the High Walkers. Some were made of stone, some of cloud, and some of a hunger that could swallow a village. We call them... Giants.”

Chapter 1: The Giants of Old (Myth & Legend) The foundational stories that defined the "Big Man" in our collective dreams.
