Review
'The story is still fresh and appealing ... features the original black and white illustration which bring the story and era vividly to life. It is an exciting read' * Carousel (The Guide to Children's Books) * 'The Gauntlet provided an escape from dull post-war Britain into a world of knights, banquets and jousting. It will most definitely have the same appeal to young readers today. * Historical Novel Society * 'It continues to epitomise the thrill of reading itself' * The Book Bag *
