Both a woman’s perspective on the Arthurian legend and a telling from the Druidic perspective. I had read this a number of years ago but found the audiobook experience entirely fresh. I had little recollection of many details. It odd an always entertaining story.  waldhaus1 | Feb 4, 2021 |  Truly fascinating. Feels like The Once and Future King is the dumbed-down history the winners wrote and this is the actual, real thing. (  ) skolastic | Feb 2, 2021 | 1) Yep, this was the book that influenced me to become a pagan. 2) Yes, I am aware of the author's misdeeds. 3) Since I am not a neurotic, narcissistic, delusional, hysterical, shrieking, shrill, judgmental, virtue signalling, butt licking warrior of social justice........I love this book and don't give a flying fuck about anyone else's opinions. 4) People who are bothered by this five star review need to sit down and really evaluate their lives and find some purpose for their existence. ( ) Equestrienne | Jan 5, 2021 | I picked this up while on my Arthurian fiction kick, and remember being apathetic towards it overall. (  )1  resoundingjoy | Jan 1, 2021 | I absolutely loved this book. First off, the fact that it is a familiar story, but told from the perspective of the female gender is such a refreshing change of pace for Arthurian tales. I enjoyed the "emotional" aspect brought such a commonly written about time in history. ( ) julieandbeli | Dec 7, 2020 |
 In ''The Mists of Avalon,'' Marion Zimmer Bradley's monumental reimagining of the Arthurian legends, the story begins differently, in the slow stages of female desire and of moral, even mythic, choice. Stepping into this world through the Avalon mists, we see the saga from an entirely untraditional perspective: not Arthur's, not Lancelot's, not Merlin's. We see the creation of Camelot from the vantage point of its principal women - Viviane, Gwynyfar, Morgaine and Igraine. This, the untold Arthurian story, is no less tragic, but it has gained a mythic coherence; reading it is a deeply moving and at times uncanny experience.
