Sir Humphrey du Val has had enough. Relegated to the Table of Less Valued Knights--Camelots least prestigious spot  boringly rectangular in shape and with one leg shorter than the other so that it has to be propped up with a folded napkin to stop it from rocking--he has been banned by King Arthur from going on quests  and hasnt left the castle in 15 years. After a chance meeting with Elaine  a young maiden in search of her kidnapped fianc  Sir Humphrey  along with his squire Conrad (an undersized giant) and Jemima (Conrads elephant)  sets off on a journey to find the distressed damsels betrothed  hoping to restore himself to a place of honour at the Round Table.  Meanwhile  Martha  an errant queen on the run from her new power-hungry husband  is in disguise and on a quest of her own to find her long-lost brother  the true ruler of her realm. Martha soon runs--literally--into Humphreys eccentric group  who take the incognito queen captive  believing her to be a boy. As they journey through countryside  castles and villages  they gather unlikely friends and enemies along the way. While each member of the party secretly harbours their own ambitions for the quest  their collective success  and the fate of the realm  rests on their grudging cooperation and unexpectedly interconnected lives.  The Princess Bride meets Monty Python and the Holy Grail in this funny  charming  and delightful tale about lesser-known heroes in Arthurian England.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67929705480245,"sku":"ByrdShop_0307359948","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780307359940.jpg?v=1794199108","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-table-of-less-valued-knights-9780307359940","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
