Gerald Morris wrote The Ballad of Sir Dinadan which is taken place in England at the time of King Arthur. The main character is Dinadan, a knight who is very good at playing a rebec.
Dinadan has done many brave actions. For example he killed Lady Miriam and Sir Edmond. In this event he over hears Lady Miriam and Sir Edmond talking about killing him. So Dinadan kills them first. Another event was when talked to an animal. He was playing his rebec in the woods, just cause, and animals started to surround him and one started to talk to him. This animal was gi9ving him hints to his future and what’s to come ahead. A last event that I’m going to tell you is when he took his friend ,which is a girl, to a spot where monks lived. He did this because Dinadan over heard someone saying that they are going to kill her. All of these actions are believable because it could happen in real life. Except for the part when he talked to the animal.
This book is a great book. Its got good vocabulary and intense action. This book is a non put down as I like to say. I loved this book because like I said it’s a non put down.

Dinadn takes his brother tristram home to the castle, but the gates were closed and would not open till morning. That knight they fell asleep and when Dinadan awoke one of his hourses was gone and so was his gift from his friend that died. Tristram stole them from him. So Dinadan went and found him at a castle. I think that he will battle tristram.
