Hey there! I sure do.

There's an old animated series from the 60s made in Australia called Arthur! And The Square Knights of the Round Table.

As for works from Canadian authors, the series Camulod Chronicles by Jack Whyte, and The Winter Knight by Jes Battis, which follows a reincarnation of Gawain living in Vancouver, Canada.

I AM SCREAMING

Those BOOKS WERE SO BAD (in my opinion)

I read Whyte’s books a long time ago, I think I was 15. While I usually say that Bernard Cornwell was my first arthurian series of books, I am lying, it was actually Jack Whyte.

But I hated it. It was pre-Arthur, so mostly dealing with Uther and Merlin, and maybe because I read it so long ago (15 years ago) I only remember the bad parts of it: the sexism, rape, wars, women suffering more because of war.

Growing up, stories of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table were among my favourite things. I remember sitting just inside my bedroom door at night in Grade 3, illuminated by the hall light, reading, reading these stories.
