A review by raymond_murphy
The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley
3.0
This was a little too long (and in need of some editing) for me to say I REALLY liked it but it was pretty cool. I have to think a little bit more if the author's central criticism of Christianity--that women are the cause and the bearers or original sin--was on point. I think it is, but the narrative itself which--basically credits Morgaine and Vivianne for birthing Mordor who brings down Arthur--seems to reinforce the very idea that Zimmer Bradley reproaches. I can't tell if that contradiction is intentional and meaningful or what.
