Book Reviews of The Winter King (The Arthur Books #1)
Book Review: brilliant
Summary: 5 Stars
The one thing that makes a change in this retelling of the Arthurian ledgends is the amount of realism for the time. No more farting around at the chalice well for the druid to do his augury. Now he stabs the buggers and watches how the blood falls. Written from the view of fighting men it, there is none of this 'slap your wrist you naughty boy!' and the enemy runs away howling like puppies. It's shirt sleeves rolled up and the lopping off of heads left right and centre. If your sick of your arthurian stuff being romatacised and rubbished then you have to read this. The characters are so real, Arthur is a bloke you really feel for and Lancelot is a slimy git that you want to kill! After reading the first chapter you can guarantee that you'll want the other three. The Author is a God!
