Rosemary Sutcliff’s The Sword and the Circle is the first book in her trilogy of King Arthur tales. Her stories are rich and full, having been drawn from several medieval sources. Because the author does not shy from presenting the adulterous affairs and bloodshed present in the original tales, this version of the King Arthur legend is recommended for high school students. The Sneaker-Blossom Study Guides for the Story of King Arthur are recommended for younger students.
