A Knight's Quest for the Holy Grail

By: C. S. Johnson

Narrated by: Mason Stewart

It's not always the quest for the cup. Sometimes, it's the quest for what's in the cup.

Lance wants nothing more than to be there to fight the dragons for his beloved Princess Alexandra. With his faithful steed by his side, Lance sets out for the magic elixir found only in the Holy Grail. With its strengthening power, facing off an old hag, the bewitching woods, and the strange ogre who lives under a bridge should be easy.

But when it comes to Alexandra's dragons, things aren't quite what they all seem to be.

Will Lance's gift be enough - or will his princess require something even more powerful to sustain her?

Pull up a cup of your favorite "elixir" and enjoy this sweet and snarky satire story from C. S. Johnson, where the dragons are real, even if they aren't.

A Knight's Tale

My traditional (twice so far) end-of-the-year novella read by the wonderful C.S. Johnson. The only thing bad about reading her novellas is usually I want them longer, but she has other great work to satisfy that need. The beginning is a nice little opening that you see what's coming down the road with a simple twist that gives us our character knight. It's a nice, little romantic jaunt that keeps just enough of the ye ol' knight symbolism without it becoming shmaltzy - in a bad way. Always a pleasure especially for the romantic in all of us men who want to be knights as well. Final Grade - B+
