The props with which Author Treece outfits his plot appear to be as accurate as a mobile museum of medieval antiquities, and he is lavish with local color, mostly bloodred. Some will doubtless regret Treece's crockery-clattering upsetting of the old round table. But the fact is that while good King Arthur could exist only in storybooks, Artos the Bear has enough gristle-and-bone reality to have actually galloped across the misty dawn of British history...
