Re: Review of The Aftermath Of The King

'Official Review: The Aftermath Of The King' by Robert Murray is a thorough and promising glimpse into the epic poem story of Camelot and the legendary King Arthur for readers! It presents the story of the book with clarity and precision for new readers. The point that the themes of loyalty, reverence, humility, bravery, selfless leadership, and destiny are inspiring, and the morals that one can draw from this poem are appreciable is worth mentioning in the review. Also, the point that the poet uses colorful and elegant diction in his narrations, and adorns his writing with figures of speech like metaphor, hyperbole, and simile, as mentioned in the review, is remarkable for readers. It was great to learn that the poet maintains an atmosphere of suspense throughout the narration, surprises the reader with a few twists, and crafts a satisfying end!

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting historical fiction about Queen Guinevere taking over the throne of Camelot in the wake of King Arthur’s death and protecting the city from the Scandinavian invaders. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

This book will make a great movie just like other movies about Camelot. A brave queen and her warriors. Very nice plot.

Such beautiful review of an awesome book. I'd definitely want to read this after seeing your review. I think I've fallen in love with the Camelot's even though this is my first time seeing it. Thanks for your review.

If you enjoy the story of Camelot, you should check this book out because it is written in a poetic format. Great review!

This sounds like an interesting poem. I really hope old English wasn't used cause I'm not fond of that. Thanks for the review!

Thanks for your review. It seems through Queen Guinevere, the book explores the Arthurian era from a different view.

Thanks for the great review. I am so glad that you enjoyed it immensely. While I like the play about Camelot, the older I get the less I understand poetry. I believe I will pass on this one and let those that do enjoy poetry and Camelot read this combination.

It is interesting to know that someone is there to defend you just like in the case of Camelot and Queen Guinevere. Nice review.

The storyline is quite exciting. I wonder if Queen Guinevere and the four gallant nights succeed in their quest to bring down Zorgar though. Can't wait to find out!
