I absolutely love everything about Camelot and this book definitely follows that amazing theme, suspense, and intrigue. You won't get bored and it is fast-paced. You will wonder what happens next, what will the king do, and which mystery is next. Well done on an amazing review and for #BOTD!

The second installment of the Camelot Chronicles series, "The Lion of Camelot" by Robert Murray follows a knight, who is Arthur's grandson, and he becomes Camelot's king. This is a an entertaining book to me

Even though the Arthur-inspired stories are interesting, I don't like to read books in the series out of order, and epic poems are not my genre. Thanks for the informative review.

The Camelot twilight has always been a fascinating story to me. I am also a fan of the Authorian legend from the epic Merlin series. This book is definitely a must-read, and I don't mind adding new words to my vocabulary.

This book reminds me of the popular movie series, Merlin. Thanks for this compelling review, finally I can read more on Camelot, and if Author's grandson succeeds in his quest. Congrats on BOTD.

I love the legend of Camelot and King Arthur. This sounds fascinating but I think I have to read the first book first. I find it tiresome to look at the dictionary oftentimes so this is a drawback for me. Thank you for your review!

I like challenges, so “challenge your vocabulary” sounds good to me. Besides, the Arthurian legend intrigues me, so this book sounds quite promising. Thank you for the lovely review, Saint Bruno!

I like reading Arthurian content. From the description, it says the book is a poem that tells a story about a so-called illegitimate king? Well,that's a first for me. The plot seems intriguing. A King disguised to find out what his subjects think of him, would like to find out how it goes. Great review.
The gift turned out to be a curse. They killed him with kindness.

The author infusing poetry into the story of Camelot and including some of the characters we are well familiar with is a creative touch. I look forward to reading this book, especially as I enjoyed the first book in the series.

The author is great at epic poetry. I too found myself stopping to look up a word. Som of the wording is a little obscure. The book is a delight. I really should have read the first book before this one. I enjoy epic poems and the Arthurian Tales, so this was right up my alley.

I appreciate the work and thought and effort put into a book like this, but it's not for me. I like the story in its old-fashioned way of being told, I am not into verses, and while I like the challenge of a complex usage of language and learning new words, I don't like the need for a dictionary throughout a book.
