Coming of the King (Spectra) door Nikolai Tolstoy
Merlin's spirit is raised and tells long tale of battles and Irish myth
Not Malory's Arthurian legendary, but rather the Welsh underpinnings of the same. An acquired taste, but one that rewards the patient reader who can appreciate it on its own terms. Alas for the trilogy that might have been, but Tolstoy's devastating loss in a British libel suit ended what promised to be a unique take on the Arthurian mythos.
