(4.4 estrellas; 4 reseñas)

This is a collection of fairy tales by Rev. David Bearne. The stories take place in the "Bright Ages" as opposed to the more common epithet "dark ages", where heroes saved the world, saints performed miracles, and also anything else was possible. Most of those stories are based on half-forgotten legends and footnotes to the history of England, charmingly retold by Mr. Bearne. - Summary by Carolin (5 hr 32 min)

Reseñas

Well read mediocre tales, mostly lives of the saints


(3 estrellas)

Lives of the saints, told in a propagandistic style. The style and simplicity of the tales turned me off. Not a factual retell
