DESCRIPTION:
"The Humiliation of Sir Lancelot" according to Jane Jones. The Humiliation of Sir Lancelot is rather disturbing in the implications that it is just off in how it is written. The constant repetition of scenes, phrases like a lance splintering into a thousand splinters in a joust, well in every joust in the story. Sometimes it read like it was written by an inexperienced young writer and I need to get out a red pencil and correct with suggestions to improve the writing and story line. On the positive side it does start with a problem, work thr. Love it Morganu Since I became Arthurian fan I always wanna see Lancelot as a real human bean, in almost all novels he is the perfection in flesh and bone and that makes him boring, The Humiliation of Sir Lancelot is a very interesting version.
