Fairly good book, terrible reader

This story is pretty good, and decently written, but the reader is horrible. I could listen to the narrated parts without being driven mad by his Philadelphia/Pennsylvania/Baltimore accent, but the combination of the accent and the utterly atrocious acting for the dialogue, was too much. He gives the characters silly voices, over-acts the parts like a dad reading a bedtime story to a three-year-old, and stresses words seemingly randomly. I had to give up after four chapters.

Edmond & King Arthur

An enjoyable tale of young Edmond, who lives during the reign of the legendary King Arthur. The story revolves around the historical conflict of the West Saxons (represented by the Dragon) and the Danes (whose standard is the Raven). It is clear that the author's sympathy lies with the English and with Christendom in general. Those looking for a storybook ending will not be disappointed as Edmond comes out victorious, and wins the hand of Frieda.

Good for readers who want to learn more Medieval

The story helped me learn a lot while at the same time it was interesting. Not on-the-edge-of-your-seat interesting, it is more of the "quiet interesting" that many older books are. I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anybody wanting to learn more Medieval history through a good story.

Good narrator, though not a lot of expression. But that was intentional.

Awesome book!

Great narrator I love these books the tell you a lot about history
They are very educational.
