It seems to be a near-Arthurian story, but explicitly not set in England and not about King Arthur, despite similarities. (Which means, of course, that the plot can be new.) It's looking interesting.

Wow. That was excellent. It's set somewhere closely analogous to fifth/sixth century Britain, but not. Active gods and magic, for one thing! The changed names are sometimes irritating, and sometimes a useful reminder that this isn't really Arthurian Britain.
Next: Hmmm... perhaps another oldie.
Realtime Interrupt by James P. Hogan, that I bought back in July 2002.
