The classic Arthurian legend is brilliantly recreated by an award-winning author/illustrator team.Of all the tales of the Knights of the Round Table, the story of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is surely the most magical. Here are thrills and enchantment, chivalry and courage, a challenge and a quest. Its hero is the greatest of all King Arthurs knights, Sir Gawain. His adversary is the fearsome Green Knight, who rides into Camelot one New Years Eve with a challenge that strikes dread into Arthurs court. For Gawain, it is the start of an extraordinary adventure.
