A review by keith_nixon
Sword of Kings by Bernard Cornwell

4.0

A real mixed bag - as usual the author's strength in writing battle scenes shines forth, however the repetition is frustrating. By this I mean telling us stuff about characters, situations or the past several times (often within a couple of paragraphs), repeat words, repeat phrases - this is an issue with the editing, not the author. A shame, because the story is decent enough, it simply needed tightening up and some extraneous stuff cutting out. I'll read the next one in the series, though.
