pickI‘m a Grossman fan, so I looked forward to this “Novel of King Arthur” (the subtitle.) The novel is strongest when the author sticks to the storytelling. Bright Sword is weakest when Grossman descends into the snarky asides that worked in the Magicians series, but don‘t work here.
Set when Camelot is in decline after the disastrous grail quest, Lancelot‘s betrayal and Arthur‘s death the remaining knights drive to define the new Britain.

Finally picked this up last night in anticipation of book 3 — too late, of course, but I‘m pretty much always late to the party😂 And I guess I‘ll have to pick up the Kobo edition instead of the Kindle…
bailedI tried so hard but had to DNF.. I read 165 pages and feel like the story is going no where and is SO boring 🥲 It was in my TBR list so atleast there‘s that 🤣 #catsoflitsy
