3.0 out of 5 stars For fans of origami, medieval times and big projects, April 9, 2002
By 
This review is from: Origami in King Arthur's Court: An Adventure in Folding (Paperback)
There are some confusing directions (such as the difference between a "connector" and a "sleeve"and when and/or why to use each when assembling the castles). My son loved the castle I made, but I'm sure he doesn't realize the hard work involved in making what for him is a big paper toy. Still, it was a worthwhile project for me and I'm glad I tackled it. I never made any of the figures, so I never experimented with laminated papers. Maybe another time...

2.0 out of 5 stars A very disappointing book, February 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Origami in King Arthur's Court: An Adventure in Folding (Paperback)
I had brought this book expecting it to be a good book. However, I found out that the models needed more than one sheet of paper and would require gluing and cutting which totally turn me of. Obviously if you don't mind these kind of things and don't want any challenge then this book is for you

1.0 out of 5 stars Boo Hoo Lew, January 17, 2003
This review is from: Origami in King Arthur's Court: An Adventure in Folding (Paperback)
The worst part about this book is that it [draws] you in with reasonable looking cover models. Origamists have thirsted for a great castle for years; this one is definitely a mirage that will leave you parched.

Once inside, however, prepare for the worst looking, worst locking, and by far the worst folding.

You could make better people by crumpling aluminum foil. The castles are nothing more than poorly-locking, crease-ridden bands of paper...
