The other knights came to life for me just as much as Collum despite having much less page time - Bedivere, Dinadan, Palomides, to a lesser extent Dagonet and Constantine. And the others, who get no or only limited point of view sections - Nimue, Guinevere and Arthur (Morgan and Lancelot less so). Just as importantly, The Bright Sword's Britain comes to life too - its conflicts, tribes, histories and magics. I guess there aren't many stories (or sets of stories) that lend themselves as readily to retelling and reimagining as King Arthur's - I wonder why that is? Grossman's version works.
