It was really short
Revisado: 04-21-24
It’s funny, I had to read this for school and when I got the physical copy of the Chronicles I was astounded how short it really was. I had imagined it to be this massive text but in reality it was just compact and very dense. Having it read to me was a much better option as I could just sit back and enjoy the Chronicles as a narrative. Overall great production and fun to have it read now. Thank you.

Throughout his life, Joseph Campbell was deeply engaged in the study of the Grail Quests and Arthurian legends of the European Middle Ages. In this new volume of the Collected Works of Joseph Campbell, editor Evans Lansing Smith collects Campbell’s writings and lectures on Arthurian legends, including his never-before-published master’s thesis on Arthurian myth, “A Study of the Dolorous Stroke.” Campbell’s writing captures the incredible stories of such figures as Merlin, Gawain, and Guinevere as well as the larger patterns and meanings revealed in these myths.

Insightful and hits like a hammer

I absolutely love this book. The narration in 'Romance of the Grail' by Joseph Campbell hits with the force of the thunder knight himself. It was incredibly easy to listen to, and filled with amazing details. I have never learned so much about Arthurian Mythology as I did through this book. A heartfelt thank you goes out to the Joseph Campbell Foundation and Audible

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 208
It is autumn 1981 when inconceivable horror comes to Blackeberg, a suburb in Sweden. The body of a teenager is found, emptied of blood, the murder rumored to be part of a ritual killing. Twelve-year-old Oskar is personally hoping that revenge has come at long last—revenge for the bullying he endures at school, day after day. But the murder is not the most important thing on his mind. A new girl has moved in next door—a girl who has never seen a Rubik’s Cube before, but who can solve it at once. There is something wrong with her, though, something odd.

Disturbing, a modern Gothic Tale
Revisado: 11-27-22
The films "Let Me In" (2010) and "Let the Right One In" (2008) were good, well-made stories for the screen; the book is an entirely different experience, with more detail and many horrors not explained in the movie make themselves indispensable to the story's overall theme. All three tales retell the tale differently, making it almost a new account. The book is extremely dark, and the vampirism spreads like a plague. Old-world fears make themselves anew; an unsuspecting public cannot deal with the horrifying reality- thus, misdirection and death ensue as deep and well-developed characters deal with the darkness.
