Sir Balin the Ill-Fated
Which makes destiny a splendid thing for King Arthur and his noble knights, but what about a knight who is destined to bring disaster to everything he touches? Such a knight is poor Sir Balin, who bears the burden of a childhood prophecy of doom. And sure enough, whenever he's around, things seem to go sour. Whether he's battling an invisible knight or accidentally overthrowing kingdoms, Sir Balin does his best but always expects the worst.
Will Sir Balin finally discover his true destiny? And which ill-fated path will he choose? Join him in this latest gallant adventure from the acclaimed Arthurian author Gerald Morris.
Gerald Morris
When Gerald Morris was in fifth grade he loved Greek and Norse mythology and before long was retelling the stories to his younger sister and then to neighborhood kids. He began carrying a notebook in which he kept some of the details related to the different stories. The joy he found in retelling those myths continued when he discovered other stories. According to Gerald Morris, “I never lost my love of retelling the old stories. When I found Arthurian literature, years later, I knew at once that I wanted to retell those grand tales. So I pulled out my notebook . . . I retell the tales, peopling them with characters that I at least find easier to recognize, and let the magic of the Arthurian tradition go where it will.” Gerald Morris lives in Wausau, Wisconsin, with his wife and their three children. In addition to writing he serves as a minister in a church.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Fun and light, but not without substance. Sir Gawain is still my favorite of this series, though. I'd like to try one of these with my 3rd-5th grade book discussion some year.
