Review
"The stories read well... Riordan can write and Ambrus's dynamic ink-and-wash paintings and black-and-white illustrations bring the action to life. This is an Arthur to browse, enjoy, and take with a grain of salt."--School Library Journal
"Riordan's clear and powerful language and Ambrus' illustrations will raise goose pimples in this excellent retelling."--Yellow Brick Road
"A fascinating and magical rendition, fully supported by the dynamic and atmospheric pictures of Victor G. Ambrus."--The Commercial Appeal
"Black-and-white pictures alternate with those brightened by brilliant watercolors... An interesting interpretation of the English lore."--Booklist
"Wonderfully illustrated book. The reader learns the entire story of King Arthur from the time he was just a little boy until the end of his kingdom... Readers of all ages will find this enjoyable to read."--Bloomsbury Review
