Summary: Not a Key to In-depth Study
Comment: Daniel Moran's Cliffs Notes on The Once and Future King is not as comprehensive as one could wish. The title is quite misleading and I was very disappointed to discover that the coverage of the later parts of the saga was so sparse and unhelpful.

Though the guide is helpful in studying the symbolism and satire present in first part of the story (The Sword in The Stone), only vague and unhelpful references to the second, third and fourth parts of the epic are present in this Cliffs Notes volume. This would be better titled Cliffs Notes on White's The Sword in The Stone.

I recommend this Cliffs Notes only if one wishes to study the Sword In The Stone; it's practically useless for the rest of the saga.

Summary: Shipping Sham
Comment: Cliffnotes are Cliffnotes but who you buy them from is what counts. This seller charges more for shipping than the cost of the book. Shop around guys, highway robbery here!!

Summary: A Whole New Perspective
Comment: A few weeks ago I recieved my school reading list. I was happy that the Once and Future King was on it because I had already read it. I purchased the Cliff Notes. The refreshed my memory with out taking to much time. I also liked how they list the characters and what they did in the beginning of the book. That way if you forget you can always look it up. The comments that are contained also help widen my perspective on what the book means. I think that everyone who has read the book should purchase these cliff notes.
