adventurous tense slow-paced
It was a slog to get through. I enjoy Arthurian stories but this just didn't do it for me.

Listened to the audiobook, and I must praise the narrator's fabulous work. He brings the world of Arthur to life so vividly, and the source material is beautifully wrought.

Really enjoyed this read, at times the description of battles was long and skimmable but there were always little foreshadows or interior character thoughts that made me want to carefully read it all. Will eventually continue the saga but dont need to right away.
