Tale of King Arthur establishes a number of the important knights and the dream-logic with which these stories operate. It is funny how immediately the knights mess up something in their quests: Gawain beads a woman; Pellinore lets his own daughter die, and the Lance of Longinius is used to kill people. So far so good in the Kingdom of Britain.

Sir Gareth is a great story with everything you could want from a medieval romance.
Tristram takes too long, but the Lancelot and Elaine arc is really good. Sir Dinadan is an enjoyable character as well, would have liked some more content from him.
The Quest for the Sangreal is, of course, wonderful. Malory's version makes me want to read the Vulgate cycle version more.

The tale of Lancelot takes it for granted that the affair between him and Guinevere has already begun. Seems to me like there is a tension within Lancelot over his knightly virtues and the repeated accusations of an affair. Hopefully it all gets sorted out with Arthur in the end for the best!

Emperor Arthur of Rome is a fun side quest with broad sweeping implications. Would be a shame if this doesn't matter at all for the rest of the book.
