Lancelot: And the Field of Flying Ponies 2008 Steve Cross All Lancelot wants to do is die, but he allows the magician Merlin to take him away because he can't endure the thought of disappointing his mother.

In this future he must conquer the mysterious Rittlock, an evil king. In the Field of Flying Ponies, past, present, and future clash in the battle that could save or destroy the world.
