The once and future king obviously
Thomas Myers
It's not obvious to him, obviously. So you're just being a dick. If you're going to try to exert yourself over other people do it where it counts, not on an anonymous message board. That just makes you a pathetic coward.

I hear The Winter King is good and that one by Thomas Mallory.
David Murphy
Luke Mitchell
The Mabinogion
Idylls of the King
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight
Arthurian Romances
The Faerie Queene
Parzival
Tristan: With the Tristran of Thomas
The Mists of Avalon
The Once and Future King
James Gray
Malory - Le Morte D'Arthur
Make sure to read both Caxton and the Winchester Manuscript.
Juan Wilson
Just read the Mists of Avalon. It's completely accurate and covers everything.
Adrian Watson

Of what, the historical Arthur?
Jackson Thomas
Yes, and add Taliessin in Logres

You wasted these digits
Christian Ross
I was kidding. Start with Malory and Troyes.
Lincoln Nelson
U.waldo Cutler - stories of king arthur and his knights
Carter Rogers
This video is informative and could lead you to what you are looking for.
John Foster
Here is a very good point of reference, it contains everything that actually makes up the mythology (not everything that is inspired or based on it, making everything relevant). Start with Le Morte D’Artur, and please be content with the fact that not everything is available to the English speaking public.

Cameron Richardson

Historia regum Britanniae is foundational, don't know if it's the best to start with though.
Carter Garcia

What is it about?
Christopher Ramirez
It is a pretty good reconstruction of what an Iron Age 6th century Romano-Celt Arthur might have been like
Filtered through the lenses of (i) heroic fantasy (ii) provides realistic interpretations of much of the mythology
Ian Price
The Pendragon Cycle is pretty damn underrated
Robert Parker
Romance of the Grail: The Magic and Mystery of Arthurian Myth by Joseph Campbell
Parker Bell
try Mallory's Le Morte, e.g. the edition illustrated by Anna-Marie Ferguson
I also enjoyed Deeping's Uther and Igraine, but idk how it compares to other more recent Arthur novels (I should add that this book is a prequel to Arthur in that it is about his father).
Luke Gonzalez
Fate/stay night
Ryder Ward
waste of dubby dubs, desu
Jonathan Kelly
It comprises the essential Arthurian legend. And probably does it better than anything since Malory did it in the 15th century. absolutely required reading.
Hudson Nguyen

Elijah Martinez
