King Arthur The Holy Grail

King Arthur & The Holy Grail is a masterpiece of literature that vividly tells about the greatest adventure in the history. As with other epics, the author's illusory world is filled with strong moral conflict. Ride with King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table as they battle the evil Saxons, led by Lord Goron, in a deadly quest to rescue the Fisher King and The Holy Grail, Christ's Cup from the Last Supper. Live the twists and turns, plots and counterplots, tragedy and betrayal, victory and defeat, and the terror of demons, phantoms, dragons, and wicked men that stand in the way of Arthur and his knights as they race against evil in a quest for the most powerful relic in Christendom. This is a story of knights and maidens, wizards and witches, assassins and saints, hate and love. And in the end, the age-old question "Where is the Holy Grail?" is finally answered.

Using a vibrant and rich palette that includes deep blues, brilliant purples, warm reds, and vivid yellows, renowned interpreter of Celtic art Davis presents scenes from the life of King Arthur.

Tells stories of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.

When two boys save an old man from robbers, they learn of a competition in Londinium to decide the next king of Britain. The elder, Kay, is determined to prove himself worthy as a knight or a king. The younger is Arthur, a farm boy through and through - until he sees the sword in the stone.

Composed by an unknown author in early thirteenth-century France, The Quest of the Holy Grail is a fusion of Arthurian legend and Christian symbolism, reinterpreting ancient Celtic myth as a profound spiritual fable. It recounts the quest of the knights of Camelot - the simple Perceval, the thoughtful Bors, the rash Gawain, the weak Lancelot and the saintly Galahad - as they journey through danger and temptation to reach the elusive Holy Grail. But only one of them is judged worthy to see the mysteries within the sacred vessel, and look upon the ineffable. Enfused with tragic grandeur and an aura of mysticism, The Quest is an absorbing and radiant allegory of man's perilous search for divine grace, and had a profound influence on later Arthurian romances and versions of the Grail legend.
