The Princess, the Crone, and the Dung-Cart Knight (The Squire's Tales, 6) Paperback – October 6, 2008

The book was just the way the seller described, and it arrived sooner than expected. This must be a good seller!

I read this book - I kid you not - for a grad school paper about the Knight and the Cart. And it was BY FAR my favorite modern retelling. This book was a joy to read. As a scholar, Morris really did an exquisite job of sticking with the details of the story.I wish the rest of the reading I did for my paper was this much fun!

We've read the entire series of these books and this one is the best so far. Anyone with high-level elementary or middle-school level readers interested in things like the Arthurian legends will love these books. But I recommend that they be read in order, as things from prior books in the series are referenced frequently.This author has a second series of books set in Arthurian times as well for low-mid level elementary readers we also enjoyed.

I cried when this series ended. It is a fast-paced, witty, intelligent, and fun new take on King Arthur and his round table, the knights, Merlin, and the enchanting world of faeries. Worth a read. Everyone in my family loves these books and recommends them as often as possible.

Book just a described. Love it! Thanks so much!

Sarah has one of the best character arcs in all of Gerald Morris' books, and if you've read the previous books, you should enjoy seeing familiar characters again.

She is just thirteen when she sees Queen Guinivere kidnapped. Having met the kind queen and the knight accompanying her, Sarah realizes that what has happened to her new friends. Alone, since her mother was murdered, Sarah understands that the knight is asking her to report the kidnapping to Arthur so she travels to Arthur's camp.Sarah's adventures begin in earnest as she accompanies knights to rescue Guinevere. Viewed through her eyes, we see a different view of Arthur, Guinivere, and some of the knights of the Round Table. In her travels she meets interesting individuals, both honorable and not. I liked this little read for the young who I believe will enjoy this story featuring King Arthur, Queen Guinivere and the knights.

I'm a big fan of Gerald Morris' books, and this one in particular I was very excited about. What a title! It was sure to be good.Unfortunately, when I paused to go get a drink from the drinking fountain (a mere three yards away) someone stole the book. Let me repeat, someone actually stole this book when I left it, bookmarked, on a table for only one minute. One minute. I returned to my table, and the book was gone.If that doesn't tell you this author is good, I don't know what will. I'll have to save up for another hardback edition, but it's totally worth it.

Brilliant series
