Other than that Arthur Landis set up a space opera in a series of books starting with "A World Called Camelot," and Poul Anderson did something similar in "The High Crusade." Anderson's work is the better of the two (at least to my taste) and well worth reading. If you really want to know about all the treatments of Arthurian legend in book form, I recall seeing an advertisement for something called "The Arthurian Concordance" a couple of years back. I think it ran for about $35 and claimed to be a complete listing of Arthur and his knights in print through the time of its publication. -Mark
