Title: Disappointing
Review: After having read and loved Howard Pyle's 1968 Classic Pressedition of "The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood" I was quitedisappointed with "The Story of King Arthur and His Knights".Whereas Pyle brilliantly brought his characters to life in "RobinHood", the characters of "King Arthur" seem flat and lifelessby comparison. The King Arthur stories read like little morethan a description of events; one doesn't really get a feelingof being there while things are happening as in "Robin Hood."The dialogue seems much more realistic in "Robin Hood", but Ithink there's more to it. The writing style in "King Arthur"I'd characterize as prosaic---in sharp contrast to the charming, poetic style of writing in "Robin Hood."
