It did look a little dodgy.

I didn't like it because it was so boring and not funny.

It wasn't that interesting like Varjak Paw. It was a god book but not that good. There wasn't enough adventures or actions.

I read this book to my Grandma. This book was good because it was about King Arthur and his sword and i like this story. My favourite character is Merlin the wizard because he was funny and clumsy. My favourite part of the story was when they thought Arthur was making up the fact that he could take out the sword from the stone and he showed them it was true. I recommend this to people who like to learn about history.

I liked that there was the squire Arthur and his stepbrother, stepdad said he couldn't try out to be the king but he was the one who found the enchanted sword. I liked Arthur best because he was the only one able to pull out the enchanted sword.

I enjoyed reading about Merlin's magic going wrong. I like how Merlin was the professional but Gwen always managed to fix his messes.
