Book Review of The Book of Merlyn (Once and Future King, Bk 4)

The Book of Merlyn (Once and Future King, Bk 4)
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 3


It wasn't what I expected. I thought it would be full of the magic of Merlyn ... but instead it was about the philosphy of war and how man differs from the animals. Although I did find the Pros for war thought-provoking. It repeats the two parts from "The Once and Future King" where Arthur joins the ants and geese. It's more clear about Arthur's death ... yet also includes all the theories of how he's still alive. Perhaps a little too serious for a fantasy.
