They're alright. It's about what you'd expect out of a short introduction to the men. I'd recommend Yale English Kings series if you want to take it further with any of them, though I'm not too sure about the quality of the penguin ones, the Yale series are all scholarly and academic but their presentation is wildly different. Henry the Young King for example is one of the best written biographies I've ever read while Athelstan in the same series is very dry, which is sometimes to be expected from the nature of the sources.
