Very pretty.
Everyone is scripted to be an idiot.
Really childish.

Could have been really good,
Fast pace of the show, terrible ending
Story is good but they end it in only 6 episodes, all things depended on the horse , they showed the horse(Ardanwen) so intelligent in comparison with other characters, the main character is too weak (tiuri) sometimes i realise there a no need for him. They didn't even explore the main negative character atleast some story about. Talking about support characters were nice , like the bonding between Iona and red knight.
Let's make plot twists taboo again.
I was really enjoying the series until about episode 5. The story, characters, and visual backdrop really draw you in, and I think most of the young actors gave fine performances in spite of what some other reviews are saying. The problem, though, is that the writers decided to throw in a bunch of plot twists in the 3rd act. The attempted twists do not work and send their story straight to hell, adding it to the growing list of failed plot subversions which now include the likes of Last Jedi and Game of Thrones, S8. Screen writers need to get off the plot twist bandwagon that they all seem to have jumped on since Game of Thrones made it a thing. Somebody needs to remind them that most of the time, plot twists do not work and are a dangerous thing to attempt, because if done poorly they merely undermine the good elements that a story has built up.
Could be better. The last episode ruins everything
It is somewhat Narnia & lord of the ring.
In fact it does not really matter. So is the main character who can't be more stupid.
That's fine.
Even series like LUNA NERA knows how to save itself in the very last episode. THE LETTER FOR THE KING just does the opposite. It has no logic, no purpose in the ending as if the director wanted to end the nightmare of doing this series. I don't mind watching series with bad ending but ending a series with no logic really tests my bottom line. I gave 6 or 7 to episode 1-5. And save 4 to the last.
