I found myself less engaged with this story than the first one becuase Arthur-in-the-Stone ages much faster than our Arthur. Their compelling parallels are less parallel in this book. Not completely different, but less striking. I found that I was far more intereted in our Arthur's story than the stories in the stone. I am still interested to see how this will end and I still really like our Arthur as a young protagonist, but I was just not as taken with this book.
