The Singing Sword: The Dream of Eagles, Volume 2 by Jack Whyte
5.0
4.5 stars
Continuing a re-read of one of my favorite historical fiction series of my youth, I was once again transported to England during the fall of the Roman Empire.
This series still holds up very well some twenty plus years later. The prose reads more like a journal than anything else, and while I can see it not being for everyone, I really enjoy the style. The battle scenes especially are very well done.
Getting to see the little pieces of the Arthurian Legend slowly being dropped into place is just as fun this second time around.
Plus, that ending. Hit just as hard this second time.
