Tennyson's Camelot:

Tennyson was nearly fifty when he began to write his major Arthurian poem, the Idylls of the King. From his earliest years the legends of King Arthur, "the greatest of all poetical subjects" as he called them, had fascinated and haunted him. As a child he had been familiar with Malory; throughout his life he read all available medieval writing related to thestory of Camelot.

Halt's Peril (The Ranger's Apprentice, Book 9)Halt's Peril (The Ranger's Apprentice, Book 9)

Halt, Horace and Will are on the trail of Tennyson and his followers. The false prophet of the Outsider cult escaped justice for his crimes in Clonmel, and Halt is determined to stop him before he crosses the border into Araluen. Will has defeated one of Tennyson's Genovesan assassins in Clonmel - but there are two left alive. Are the extraordinary archery skills of Will and Halt enough to save them during a duel with the Genovesans . . . or is Will's mentor facing his last battle?
