  Pendragon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pendragon or Pen Draig, meaning "head dragon" or "chief dragon" (referring to a battle standard), is a Celtic title, and hence the name of several traditional Kings of the Britons:
Aurelius Ambrosius, the son of Constantine II of Britain, is called "Pendragon" in the Vulgate Cycle.
Uther, brother of Aurelius and father of King Arthur, is called Uther Pendragon because he was inspired by a dragon-shaped comet (In the Vulgate, he took the name from his brother).

 Amazon.com: Pendragon: Books: Steve Lawhead   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The fourth volume of Lawhead's ambitious Pendragon cycle, in which he attempts to combine Atlantean myths and the Matter of Britain, arrives at last at the reign of Arthur, and Lawhead's treatment is admirably original.
In "Pendragon", Lawhead expands on a part of the story about king Arthur that he has already described by recounting one of the struggles that the king Arthur faced in the early days of his kingship.
Pendragon is the fourth of Stephen Lawhead's Pendragon Cycle, an excellent reimagining of the King Arthur legend.
