	Review of Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Mists of Avalon
		The Mists of Avalon, Marion Zimmer Bradley, Sphere, 1982, 1009 pp.
		The Mists of Avalon shares a few flaws of this legion of the uninteresting, most especially the trait of using minute spelling variations for character names -- for example, Bradley uses Gwenhwyfar for Guinevere -- as if to cloak the fact that something is being reused.
		Avalon grooms Arthur to be High King, especially in the manner of keeping those with old beliefs happy.

	Powell's Books - The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley
		The Mists of Avalon is very well written, and gives a descriptive picture of what life in the Middle Ages was like for nobles and knights.
		The Mists of Avalon follows the life of King Arthur’s mother, half sister, aunt and wife.
		In sum, I think that The Mists of Avalon is confusing at times, but gives a brutally honest picture of the life of nobles in the Middle Ages and the conflict between the Church and peoples old religions.

	Filmtracks: The Mists of Avalon (Lee Holdridge)
		For The Mists of Avalon, Holdridge finally has the opportunity to project those talents onto a huge canvas, with a mammoth orchestra, choir, and female vocal ensemble, as well as a story that requires a broad range of thematic material.
		The sound quality of the recording is stunning; with many television scores dampening sound too heavily, The Mists of Avalon is one of those exceptions in which the full, reverberating effect of the live performance is preserved after the mixing process.
		With The Mists of Avalon being reshown after its initital mid-July debut, it is highly recommended that you watch it, if not only for the magnificent score.

	Mists of Avalon, Marion Zimmer Bradley
		The mysterious island Avalon, ruled by the High Priestess (also called the Lady of the Lake), is the magical seat of power for the pagans.
		Unlike many feminist fantasies, in which the women are portrayed simply as the victims of brutal and oppressive men, The Mists of Avalon depicts powerful women both good and evil, as petty and exploitive as the men with whom they involve themselves.
		From the trickery which leads Igraine to break her marital vows, to the unwitting manipulation which causes Arthur to commit incest with Morgaine, to the cruel brainwashing of Morgaine's son Mordred, the priestesses of the Goddess are the true drivers of history in their world.

	Reading Group Guide - The Mists of Avalon
		I read the first chapters of what became The Mists of Avalon with a mounting excitement, for Marion had, indeed, found a new approach to the legend, one with particular relevance to the culture of the day.
		The spirituality of Avalon derives from the British Mystery tradition, especially as it was interpreted by the occult writer Dion Fortune, whose character, Miss LeFay Morgan, is both a progenitor and descendant of Morgaine.
		In Priestess of Avalon, I have taken the opportunity to try and show not only Helena's spiritual quest, but Marion's religious position, which was that of a student of the Mysteries who could find truth and inspiration in both Christianity and paganism.

		However, I do like Mists, it is a good and adventurous and well written story, but its kind of like those movie's you shouldn't think too much about, just watch and let the pretty lights entertain you for awhile.
		However, Priestess of Avalon did interest me because I enjoy the story about Constantine and his wife manipulating him into killing his son and then he kills his wife (well, she gets boiled to death, I think it was him..) But other than all that, it was kind of boring, much like the others..
		Mists is also definitely on my list, but ugh, i've been so busy with school and work and i get home and i have to get homework done and i am so damn drained!
