speaking of books I'm waiting for my 50th ann. lord of the rings limited u.k. harper collins deluxe to come in the mail, as well as the definitive corrected text of the hobbit deluxe version with colorized tolkien pictures.
Now as for king arthur, they should do a good film version of le morte d'arthur, and the once and future king by t.h. white you have read the once and future king have'nt you. While your at it you should read mary stewart's merlin trilogy and it's sequel the wicked day easily the best of the modern arthur novels.
If your going to read Milton's Paradise Lost you might as well read the dante trilogy. Starting with the inferno.
