A small irritant is the fact that these are not Chronicles, a year by year account, usually concerned with geographical areas, but verse romances. So, the title sucks. The prose style of the translator is not very lively, and his excuse might be that he's gone for accuracy as opposed to liveliness. the collector of Arthuriana should not be without this volume, but very little here has not been covered by other period writers.
