| Summary | "The Faery Queen and Her Knights: Stories Retold from Edmund Spenser" by the Rev. Alfred J. Church is a collection of retellings and adaptations of classic tales written in the early 20th century. This compilation draws from Spenser's epic poem "The Faerie Queene," introducing readers to the noble knights who embark on adventurous quests, including the notable Red-Cross Knight, as they face trials of virtue, love, and bravery against dark forces. The opening portion introduces the Red-Cross Knight, a brave yet untested hero who is on a sacred mission to slay a Great Dragon and save the realm. Accompanied by the fair Lady Una, whose royal lineage has been oppressed by the Dragon, and a sad Dwarf bearing provisions, they navigate a mysterious wood filled with perils. Their journey quickly turns treacherous when they become lost and stumble upon the Den of Error, where a monstrous creature tests the Knight's valor. As tensions rise and challenges multiply, the themes of courage, the importance of faith, and the responsibility of a true knight begin to unfold, setting the stage for subsequent adventures in this enchanting retelling.
