Terence knelt on the floor beside her chair and took her hand. "My lady, I for one am not at all sure about that. But even if it were true, you have saved England by your courage, and that sort of thing is, after all, how nobodies become somebodies."

* RonTheDeathEater: Some characters who were portrayed as good in other versions of the legends are made idiots or jerks because Morris' current lead character doesn't like them. Tristram and Isolde are the best examples.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Plenty. Both uses of “I'm my own damn princess,” in ''The Princess, the Crone, and the Dung Cart Knight'' are pretty memorable.
* CrowningMomentOfFunny: Quite a few, but the duelling priests (and Dinadan's sportcaster-like commentary) in ''The Squire's Quest'' is priceless.

** ''The Ballad of Sir Dinadan'' contains one such bonus in the form of a flying spear cutting off a speech. For anyone who has suffered through the invocation of names in “Culwch and Olwen,” may also count as a CrowningMomentOfFunny

** Readers may feel this of Dinadan after the events of ''The Squire's Quest'' and ''Legend of the King'', given [[spoiler: he is one of the few surviving members of Arthur's court]]. At least he still has [[HeterosexualLifePartners Palomides]], since they were both out of the country when everything went down.

* TheWoobie: No one consistently, but Arthur is definitely one in the second book when he's suffering over Guinevere and Lancelot's blindingly obvious love affair.

* MoralEventHorizon: Mordred crosses it when he [[spoiler: kills Bedivere]]. Killing [[spoiler: Alexander]] out of spite just proves exactly how much of a CompleteMonster he is.

** Any character whose story relies overmuch on "Courtly Love" is likely to come off very badly indeed in this story. (Guinevere and Lancelot only become sympathetic several books after their involvement ends.)
