Title: least enjoyable of the Avalon trio
Product review: Having just finished all three of Bradley's Avalon novels, I am hard pressed to recommend her latest, but weakest, contribtuion to the "saga". Composed of three separate but somewhat related stories, they are uneven, rushed, and perilously close to "bodice ripper" plots. After reading "The Forest House," the events in "Lady of Avalon" become repititious and predictable, with a palpable lack of imagination and wit in the story lines. It is "deja vu all over again," and again, and again. I was bored, and I had the distinct feeling that Ms. Bradley was bored, too. One wonders if she could have written this book if her use of the exclamation mark was prohibited. "The Mists of Avalon" stands as the best of these chronicles, and can be enjoyed without feeling obligated to read "Lady of Avalon."
