[Astou D · Rating 3 out of 5]

I am not the biggest fan of Non fiction but the book started out very boring I found it very difficult to stay on topic. As well as the layout of the book skips from one topic to another it does not all flow well together. I did get some valuable information from the book. It touches on the topic of King Arthur and his time a few times which was interesting.

It was interesting to read bits and piece of information about knights, and knights influence on culture. It’s definitely not exhaustive, but I don’t think it was meant to be. It’s a nice introduction.
