Comments: Ok so just to be clear, I love Mark Twain. He is my like 5th great uncle or something. HOWEVER, this book was supposed to offer me some deep instructive comparison and parody on the follies of man. So perhaps my brain was turned off the few times I attempted listening to this, but all I got was a rather 2nd rate telling of the King Arthur story. Not dynamic or interesting at all, in fact I couldn't finish it. Perhaps this is one to save for when I'm older and more mature. Still the crafting of sentences etc was wonderful.
