The Werewolf of the Round Table

Reading Mr. B. a bedtime story from a collection of classic tales published a hundred years ago, we encountered the story of Sir Marrok, a knight of King Arthur’s Round Table. But it took until Chapter Three in the story to discover that the Lady Irma mixed a potion to change Sir M. into a werewolf. Whoa. I thought I knew the Arthurian tales, but I somehow missed this one. Mr. B., always attentive to stories about knights and castles, was duly surprised and impressed. He never expected this, either. We do know, however, that the werewolf of the Harry Potter tales was a good guy. So there’s hope.
