Frankly, this epic has nothing to envy the tenors of the current fantasy. Magic, monsters, extraordinary places, we all find it in this work. For cons, I do not understand that in the 21st century we can do as the introduction in the mid 19th. Go read the introductions on Gallica 19th, you will have the same scholarly references, not even translation book quotes the text scholarly peers. As much as I can have fun the old fashioned style of Paul Meyer or Ferdinand Castet so there is missing the old dimension to appreciate it exceeded style.
And that's a shame because the two researchers showed great talent in translation following who she really is enjoyable to read. The main thing is the text of the song that really worth seeing and that actually reads very easily. A must for anyone who enjoys history, the Middle Ages and fantasy.
