5.0

i had not read any Burgess for years until I picked up this book: pleasantly surprised by the wit, humour and verbal dexterity.

Yes, there are times where you need to use an encyclopedia to unwind his references ans he was a morbid fascination with the collapse of bodies at death but Burgess was a literary force.

This retelling of Arthurian legend is gripping, exciting and funny: time to seek the grail your self!
