Netgalley: The Fantasy of the Middle Ages: An Epic Journey through Imaginary Medieval Worlds by Larisa Grollemond

 

The Fantasy of the Middle Ages: An Epic Journey through Imaginary Medieval Worlds by Larisa Grollemond
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

To sum up, this is a book about how European Middle Ages has inspired and still influence all the works of fantasy at the present time and more. It was not a really deep work on the subject and with a more modern view than what we might find in much older scholastic books. All in all, I liked it but it is not the best book if you want to learn in more details on the subject, this was a kind of Middle Ages for beginners, a beautiful book to put on your living room's table to look good. I liked the pictures and the illustrations more than anything.
