It's just odd. This whole thing is unbearably odd. King Arthur is brought back for some reason, and how he fits into the whole scheme of things is never explained, and then suddenly Jennifer used to be Guinevere? And Lancelot is brought back. I don't understand.

I'm trying to figure out if Fionavar, being the so-called "first of all worlds," is the source of everything that has ever existed, then maybe that's why? But, then again, none of the other characters are "other people" in that sense, so it just doesn't make sense to me.

There's also an unnecessary amount of sex, and it largely happens to the men, and it always happens with some goddess, and it's always to save the day or because a character went through a tough trial, so I guess some goddess pussy is a good reward? I don't know.

Also, that rape that punctuated the last book? Yeah, well it produced a baby. Guinevere had Sauron's Maugrim's baby. Then there's a bunch of black swans, and it's the same as the first book: white = good and anything of a dark complexion = bad, except those people on the plains who are humorously described as "nut-brown" colored.

And then there's a whole segment where, I kid you not, the Dead Men of Dunharrow--oops, I mean some dead king named Owein and his dead army fight with the good guys. I mean, could this guy rip off of Tolkien anymore?

Thank God there's only one more, and I still can't believe I recommended this to people.
