Arthur Trilogy

[Pirate Kate]

I know these books are more teenage/young adult reading that adult books, but i've just got the third one and i was wondering if a) anyone had read them and b) what people thought of them.

I'm having to re-read the second one before I read the third because i can't remember what happened. I've really enjoyed these books - does anyone agree?

I've finished all of them now, and i feel a bit miffed at the ending of the third one. He doesn't solve the Arthur-Winnie-Tom thing!

I've not read these, no, but I like his retelling of East Anglian folklore (forget the title of the book now). Really made me realise why the Fens are such a spooky place, even today.

I had to go to Amazon to find out what books you were posting about.
In case anyone else is wondering, here is the Amazon review of the first book in the trilogy:

Amazon.co.uk Review
Young Arthur de Caldicott is anxious to grow up, spread his wings and become a knight. But for now he must content himself with the life he has in the bosom off his family and friends. One day one of these friends, the old and mysterious Merlin, gives Arthur a special stone, and from that moment his life becomes entwined with that of King Arthur himself...

Arthur:The Seeing Stone is an extraordinary novel, contemporary in feel but with its roots deep in the past. One hundred short chapters give snapshots of both the mythical world of King Arthur and the day-to-day existence of a young boy growing up in 1199, and as the two begin to touch on each other's lives the story develops into a multi-layered novel with a depth and intensity that maintains a page-turning, easy-to-read--yet at the same time challenging--quality that is somehow unique.

Sorry, I should have clarified which books I was talking about.
