Has anybody else ever read 'The Mists of Avalon' by MArion Zimmer Bradly? It's SOOOO good, and it's like 1000 pages. Mebbe more...

I started reading it and really liked it... but I got annoyed at the constant Wiccan propaganda, so I gave up halfway through. I used to try to be wiccan, and my 12 year old self would have found it really cool, but there were lots of things that I liked a lot better in the original Arthur stories... It just sort of bugged me, you know?

I don't know if I'd call it propaganda...I mean, it's, like, in the 1500s....

Yeah, but that's the point... it was WRITTEN in the 90s or so, and they looked at the King Arthus stories from a Wiccan perspective. It seemed rather propagandish, but then again, that may just be me...

Yeah, I know what you mean. They go on about Christains for, like, ten pages. Tiny print, too. I skipped most of it. ^_^
