Summaries are thorough and accurate for the entire length of the poem. The only such book that makes you really want to READ ´The Faerie Queene´ is the one by Catherine Rodgers Myers in the Barnes and Noble Book Notes series (which is different from their present-day Spark Notes), but coverage of the later part of the poem is relatively sketchy. (In case anyone didn´t know, the notion that this is a Norton edition of ´The Faerie Queene,´ or that Spenser wrote ´Tristram Shandy,´ is apparently a send-up of other customer reviews, and a hilarious one at that.). And summed up by saying A solid choice among 1960s crib notes. Currently The Faerie Queene (Cliffs notes) has an overall rating of 8 over 10.
