The Sword in the Stone by T.H. White

3.0

2.5⭐️ rounded up to 3 ~ I’ve always been a fan of the BBC Merlin series and after my 4th rewatch of the show I wanted to fill the void and read more into Arthurian legend. This for me didn’t quite hit the spot. It was recommended as the best book series to read on the Arthurian legend but I found it just a tad too bonkers and wacky for me to enjoy. The ending which included the sword and the stone was what saved it for me otherwise I was going to give it 2⭐️

I’m going to continue with the series for now as I have read the rest is less wacky and covers more of Arthur as King rather than as the child squire ‘Wart’. Fingers crossed it lives up to its reputation!
