ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley reimagines the Arthurian legends through the eyes of its key female figures, most notably Morgaine, who would later be known as Morgan le Fay. The narrative centers on the mystical isle of Avalon and the ancient Druidic traditions, depicting their struggle against the encroaching tide of Christianity in Britain. Following Morgaine's journey as a priestess and her complex relationship with Arthur, the story delves into themes of power, religious conflict, and the fading of an old way of life. The influence of magic and prophecy shapes the destinies of the characters and the fate of the land.
