Review of "The adventures of Tom Sawyer ; The adventures of Huckleberry Finn ; The prince and the pauper ; Pudd'nhead Wilson ; Short stories ; A Connecticut Yankee at King Arthur's court" on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
It's a bit of an power fantasy—modern man (at least for the time it was written) goes back in time, civilizes the cretins, and none of the primitive savages can stand against his just, scientific, rational rule. I think Twain almost forgot to write any real conflict into this book. Still, it gets a little tense towards the end, and it is very well written for such a power fantasy.
