"Fairly decent job of novelizing a spot of little-known history. Prose is a bit jerky, making it difficult to visualize the action, though some parts are great."
"Although nothing was particularly memorable about this book, it could accompany a study of the early Middle Ages and help bring the time period to life for children 9 & up or even younger as a read aloud."
