What a mixed bag this book was! As the sequel to The Forever King, I have to say, The Broken Sword is a little disappointing. Picking up a few years after the events in the first book, it continues the story of Arthur Blessing, Mr Taliesin - the Merlin - and Hal. Just like the first book in the trilogy, there is an evil force embodied in a man, trying to claim the cup and destroy Arthur. And so the adventure continues - from the Middle East, to Europe and the UK and ultimately, New York.

I did not like it nearly as much as the first one, which I read first in 1994 and have reread multiple times. I am hoping that the third book brings back the magic I remember from the first book.

not as good as the first - added little girl to the cast and didn't hold my interest like the first one

The Broken Sword is not quite as great as the first book, but it is still very good.

I was prepared to not love this book as much as the first in the series, based upon the reviews that I read. I found that I have to respectfully disagree with those reviews. I loved this book - great characters, action packed, funny... definitely kept me up reading late into the night. I've already got book three out of the library.

If you are a fanatic about Arthurian legend, this might not be for you. Otherwise its an interesting look at the possible return of Arthur. I found parts of it to be incredibly funny, I look forward to the other two books in the series. NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE FIRST BOOK OF THE SERIES, I started in the middle.

The second book in a modern day King Arthur series. I loved the first book and was pretty excited to find this one. It is fun and really easy to read. I think the only drawback is that it is hard to live up to the first book.

I have yet to get my hands on the third book of the trilogy, but this one was a delight to read. Definitely a MUST for Arthur-philes and anyone else who likes a good fantasy read.

I didn't find this book's villain nearly as interesting as Saladin from The Forever King, so I'd say my favorite parts were those that involved the Knights of the Round Table.

An interesting take on the Arthurian legend. This felt a bit dry, but it was still an enjoyable read.
