Hello everyone ive read the once and future king by t.h.white and i love all mythology so i wanted to read Mort'de Arthur(or whatever its called) by Sir Thomas Malory.
The only place ive been able to find it is on project gutenberg and im not excited about reading it off a computer screen or printing 300 pages so i want to know if its worth printing 300 pages. If youve read it can you tell me. Thanks

I myself think it is worth it... however once you have printed it, you may feel it is not.
You can still buy the book from Amazon, B&N, BoL, etc.

shrink the font to 1 and then see what it looks like. If it reduces the pages by a substantial amount, then print it. After printing it, if it is not legible, then it is not worth the effort and go out and buy a copy of it.

I'v actually been able to find quite a few copies of the novel Le Mort d'Arthur...strange that you can't. Ah well.
Le Mort is good, expecially if you're into myths and fables. The novel draws on many french tales about King Arthur and all of his knights. It can be quite long-winded in various places, but overall, I think that it would be worth buying. Also, the novel does get better as it progresses, so keep that in mind if you read it.
