King Arthur was a story that many of us heard as kids. There even was a Disney movie made from the myth called The Sword in the Stone. The myth that this movie was based on was the first story I read in this collection. This story was a little different. In this story, Arthur pulled out the sword from the stone. However, no knights were present when it happened so in order to claim the throne, Arthur had to put the sword back and pull it out with witnesses. When he pulled it out his father and brother were present and much to his dismay his father said that he is not actually his father. That Merlin was his father. The rest of the stories in this collection were all about the adventures of King Arthur.
