4.0 out of 5 stars
I enjoyed the book's fresh approach to Arthurian Legend.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Crimson Chalice (Paperback)
I enjoyed reading this book, and found it captivating and very hard to put down. The author managed to convincingly bring both the times and the legend alive for me by adding details and interesting dimensions to the old legend. I found it interesting to read of Arturo as a minor 'warlord' who fought his way to power, and yet managed to retain his sense of love for humanity. A compassionate warrior, wise and forgiving. I also enjoyed reading of his parents' journeys and lives. That section of the book lays important framework for Arturo's life and adventures, as well as being extremely interesting on its own merits. When I was finished with the book, I felt as if I'd just read a bit of very interesting history..as if this person really could have lived and fought and added something to the history of his country. I really enjoyed it.

The Crimson Chalice Book Review by Ashley,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Crimson Chalice (Hardcover)
This book was the author (victor canning) own interpretation of the Aurthurian legend. Much of the story was changed as i saw it, but the basic concept remained the same. I especially liked the first section of the novel. the journey of Baradock and Tia to Aqua Silis, because you really had no idea how arthur would fit in until they came across the chalice, but even then they planned to part, and it was a surprise how everything was brought together. in the second book, the growing up of Arto, not very much action too place, but it set up the scene for the great life Arto was destined to live. finally the third book had a lot of boring parts as the arm was being formed, and many battles took place, but i really liked the ending, althought i will not give it away. One thing i did not like about this book was that some of the names were changed while others were left. Gwenevier, and Merlin remained the same, so why was it neccissary to call arther Aruturo rather than arthur? that was the only thing that bothered me.

ang galing ng pagkakasulat ng libro,
By Jose Rizal "sheena" (Baguio City,Philippines) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The crimson chalice (Paperback)
Natuwa ako ng mabasa ko ang librong ito. Hindi kasi siya boring.
Ang ganda ng kwento lalo na sa part kung saan nagkakilala at naging magkasama sa paglalakbay sina Baradock at Tia - grabe kaka-inlove. Ah basta lahat ng pwede mong maramdaman nasa librong ito : kaka-inlove,kakalungkot,kakainis, kakatuwa, kakaiyak.
