Delightful if you don't take it seriously as history.  Geoffrey said he was copying from an older book but I think he was possessed of a wonderful imagination and a really messed up sense of chronology.  Of course I love anything about King Arthur despite the fact that Geoffrey has Arthur conquering most of the known world instead of restricting his battles to Britain.  Arthur has gone to Avalon to be cured of his wounds and he has recovered he'll come back and get every thing straightened out, as once-and-future kings are s'posed to.  I am still puzzled as to why Shakespeare chose to write about Lear as described by Geoffrey when he could have written a play about Arthur.,
