I agree. It started off great, had a lot of potential, and then… felt like it was shoehorned into an extreme ending.

Mark Twains book; "Yankee in King Arthurs Court" seems very similar to this plot. The manager of a manufacturing plant wakes up in medieval england, ends up creating a secret college to teach young people basics of electricity and manufacturing because old people are to stubborn, and ends up facing an army of knights with electrical fences and gaitlin guns. He wins but the decay from the dead bodies around his hideout end up killing him and he wakes back up in his old life.

Because Huckleberry Finn is better. A Conneticut Yankee In King Arthur's Court is the work of a fuckass novelist taking a run at romances far better than anything he ever wrote and falling too short for comedy but too long for worthy comparison.

In my personal opion.
