Arthur High King of Britain
Michael Morpurgo, M.B.E.
Marooned on a sandbank, a boy faces certain death. With the sea closing in and the current about to drag him to a watery grave, his final wish is to see heaven. Waking in a strange bed, the boy meets an old man. It is Arthur, the warrior king of legend, and from his lips the boy hears of Camelot, chivalry, magic, evil and betrayal.
Reviews
I like Arthur the best because that he defeated the dragon. Also, I feel guilty for Tristram because he can’t marry with Iseult. I would recommend this book to someone that would like it.

This book is full of lots of different stories, told by the mythical King Arthur. I really enjoyed reading about the lives of the knights at the round table.

I give it a 3 because it is very, very suspenseful and it is actually based on British legend about King Arthur. However, it contained some really bad words so I gave it a three.

I really liked this book because I am interested in the Arthurian legends. My favourite characters are King Arthur and Lancelot. I am going to read other books about King Arthur now.

It’s was a brilliant book and it was intriguing because parts of it were cliff hangers and the characters were adventurous and not like any other characters I’ve read about before. This was the longest book I have read and I read it to my Grandad who was impressed with the way I tried all the tricky words that the book used. We also discussed what the words were that I didn’t know. I liked Arthur the best because he was telling the story of his friends. I would recommend this book if you like adventure and historic stories.

Arthur, who is son of King Uther Pendragon but was raised by another family, takes his rightful place as king when, as a boy, he is able to pull the sword called Excalibur from the stone. Although he rules wisely and is counseled by Merlin the magician, Arthur makes enemies of other kings and is often at war.

This book is really good because it tells you all about his life-the battles he fought in and his friends and enemies. It also tells you about Merlin and about how Arthur became the high king of Britain with the sword in the stone.

One of the best books I've ever read. It is the story of King Arthur but set in our times. Really good detail and great characters. It is quite a surprising story because the plot doesn't work out quite as you might expect.

I relly enjoyed this book because in the first few chapters of the book you gothook in. Therefore I couldn't put the book down because I I really wanted to find out what happened next. And then when I found out what happened you want to know how the story concludes!
