As stated on the front cover, Arthur and the Sword is a re-telling of how Arthur became king of England. What sets this book apart is the spectacular art supplementing the narrative. The stained glass paintings are reminiscent of what one would see in a cathedral from the Middle Ages and are very fitting and appropriate to the story. Moreover, the vibrant colors bring the story to life. The book concludes with some notes about the literary origins of the King Arthur story. This book is ideal for younger readers and is a great introduction to Arthurian literature.
