      Steinbeck's only work of fantasy literature is presented in a deluxe edition featuring a foreword by Christopher Paolini, bestselling author of Eragon. Inspired by Malory’s Le Morte d’Arthur, which he cherished as a child, Steinbeck modernizes the tales of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. He brings to life iconic figures such as King Arthur, Merlin, Morgan le Fay, Queen Guinevere, and Sir Lancelot, weaving enduring narratives of loyalty and betrayal set in Camelot. This retelling captures the wonder and magic of the Arthurian era, appealing to both Steinbeck fans and lovers of fantasy literature. The edition includes letters Steinbeck wrote to his literary agent, Elizabeth Otis, and to Chase Horton, the original editor. For over seventy years, Penguin has been a leading publisher of classic literature, offering a diverse collection of over 1,700 titles. The Penguin Classics series is trusted for its authoritative texts, enhanced by introductions and notes from distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, along with modern translations by award-winning translators.
