Helen Hollick
The Kingmaking: Book One of the Pendragon`s Banner Trilogy

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A novel of Arthur as he really was. In the first book of this exciting trilogy, author Helen Hollick brings to life Arthur Pendragon as he really might have been. Leaving behind the fairy-tale element of Merlin`s magic and the improbable existence of Lancelot, Hollick instead transports the reader to the early years of Britain circa 455 AD and tells the Arthurian legend in a solid and believable way. For one, Arthur does not pull a sword from a stone using superhuman strength, rather, he is named heir to Britain (if he can win it from the tyrant Vortigern) while standing near a `hallowed stone, the symbol of a warrior`s strength and the chieftain`s right of leadership.` Later, a sword won in battle signals his place as Britain`s King. This is a story of harsh battles, secret treasonous plots, and the life-threatening politics of the dark ages of early Britain. Intertwined through it all is the often-tested love of Arthur and Gwenhwyfar (Guinevere in Welsh - her name as it really would… [detailed...]

Neville Marten &, Jeff Hudson
The Kinks: A Very English Band

1996 y.
Publisher: Bobkat Press
Description: Marten &, Hudson`s biography explores the central paradox of `The Kinks` - a badly-behaved and permanently squabbling band that performed pop songs evoking a wistful and quirky view of English suburban life. From their 60s roots, when they hardly stood out from all the other Brit bands playing energetic electric versions of blues classics, The Kinks went on to create a distinctive string of atmospheric pop classics that could only have been English in provenance. The ups and downs of their tempestuous 20-year career are explored in detail and their influence upon everyone from Blur to Paul Weller is plausibly traced. As Ray Davies continues to re-interpret the band`s classics alongside his solo songs, talk of a reunion continues. The Muswell Hillbillies may yet ride again, but whether they do or don`t, their unique place in rock history is assured. Here is the definitive account of how The Kinks won it. [detailed...]
