Arthurian tales are one of my favorite stories to read! I am glad that the author made a poem and not just any poem but an epic one! This book stands out a lot because we rarely get anything published in this medium. Congrats on botd!

I have, equally, been fascinated by the Arthurian legend for a long time, since I got to know about the legendary king. This will be a captivating piece to follow. Thanks for the review.

Saint Bruno, thank you for your insightful review. Your point about forced rhyme in poetry really resonated with me. I am not one to be mesmerized by poetry, but your take on this book has me thinking I could give this a chance. Great job!

The story of King Arthur is a difficult one to replicate or continue. The way the author used poetry to tell the story is very unique. It has piqued my interest. Congrats on BOTD. It is a well-written one

Queen Guinevere has taken the vow of chastity and is in a nunnery. Camelot is in danger due to Zorgar, so the queen and her four knights decide to ask a man they know for help. Will they be able to save Camelot? Congratulations on BOTD!

It always amazes me how a story can be told through a poem. This seems to be an interesting read, however, I'm not sure that I would get the storyline. I look forward to reading it though. Congrats on botd. Gore review.

This seems like a well-written book, with a well-written review. The concept of mixing fantasy and history seems fascinating, I want to read more books that mix two genres into one great outcome. Thank you so much for the wonderful review, would check this book out soon!

An intriguing book of poems that focuses on Camelot and King Arthur. I am not a huge fan of Camelot. But I love and appreciate how poetry when applied can make a story more spicy.

Fascinating retelling of the age-old Camelot stories. Not usually the type of book I go for but I will have to give it a read as it looks like an epic tale in prose form. Thank you for the informative review.
