Passant Kabil passant32 — Fun, but written by a criminal whose main objective was to make the Arthurian legends a decidedly french story. Lancelot was entirely fictional, a french knight whose stories were aimed at inflating the french ego, (how coulg Gawain, an englishman from the Orkneys, be the greatest knight in the world?) However, Mallory provided some of the earliest tales and has drawn the picture of what the Arthurian legends have become in modern culture. Despite the impossibilities of historical accuracy, (as far as we know, Arthur MAY have lived, just not like that) Mallory is always a good read.

Cyril Araneta _ycy2 — I'm reading Allingham's Campion series in order, and this was next on my list - interesting, but I had a hard time getting into it. I think it was because of the Palinode family, around whom the mystery (such as it is) evolves. I kept getting the impression I was supposed to find them charming and whimsical, but I just found them rather pathetic and obnoxious (made it hard to be sympathetic to them as characters, needless to say). Also, the previous two installments of the series ("Traitor's Purse" and "Pearls Before Swine") had rather heroic, James Bondesque plots with the monolithic menace of World War II overshadowing the action, and it felt as if Campion's action (or failure to act in time) would lead to some horrific, unspeakable event. Here, Allingham takes us to Apron Street, a tucked away corner of dreary post-war London. Mysterious deaths can't be explained away by Scotland Yard, so Campion and a very welcome Lugg are recruited to move into a boarding house and infiltrate the locals. Colorful characters abound, and my favorite scenes are those with Lugg and Campion; having said that, I just couldn't sink my teeth into this one! Other reviews I've read have pointed out the rather esoteric conversation of the Palinodes as the reason some readers might be put off; I didn't have a problem comprehending them and their crumbling sense of entitlement and class-consciousness, I just didn't find them very engaging characters.
