Showing results for "Harold Foster" in Science Fiction & Fantasy

This title concludes the epic tale "The Winning of Aleta". This is followed by a sequence called "Matrimony", which ends with a newly wed queen adjusting to the luxurious, exciting court life at Camelot. But Val's marriage does not signal an end to his adventures, quite the contrary. In "War in the Forest", Val is sent out to spy on encroaching Saxons - unknowingly aided by Aleta, who, disguised as a small knight (and dubbed "Sir Puny") helps prevent disaster.

In Vol. 6, Valiant and Aleta journey to "The New World", a 16-month epic that allows Foster to draw some of his spectacular native Canadian backgrounds, and during which Aleta gives birth to Arn. Most of the rest of the book is taken up with the action-packed "The Mad King", during which Val, back at Camelot, confronts the evil, fat little King Tourien of Cornwall.

Prince Valiant helps his father reclaim his throne in the kingdom of Thule, fights alongside King Arthur, and is made a knight of the Round Table in recompense for his bravery and wit. Bored by the peace he helped to create, Val decides to do battle with the Huns, whose forces are descending on Southern Europe.

When a brash youth is exiled to the shores of Britain, his daring and cunning soon mark him as a leader of men. Follow the early beginnings as young Val earns the right of Knighthood and becomes Prince Valiant, Knight of the Round Table!
