A review by guojing
The History of the Kings of Britain (Historia Regum Britanniae) - All Books + Epilogue by Geoffrey of Monmouth

3.0

The translation I read, by Sebastian Evans, was downright hellishly abstruse. I have grown accustomed to reading Middle English works, but this was different. Word order, word choice, and ambiguities make this a very unpleasant read even for somebody who takes pleasure in archaisms and prolixity.
