A YALSA Amazing Audiobook for Young Adults
An enjoyable and even thoughtful entry into a mythos that has
obsessed us for generations. --NPR "Spellbinding, ... Unique and
refreshing" --Hypable "A fresh take on Camelot . . . this
should be another hit." --Booklist "An acclaimed master of
the female-centric retelling turns her hand to Arthuriana . . More
diverse than many Camelot representations, this is a retelling
designed for a modern audience more interested in people than
battles and more intrigued by identity and affection than honor and
questing. A promising series opener."--Kirkus Reviews "With
immersive prose, White captures the spirit of Arthurian legend
while adding diversity and a bit of powerful feminist flair in this
appealing series opener.... Leaves much to be explored in future
installments." --Publishers Weekly
"First in a series, this fantasy novel will appeal to fans familiar
with stories of Arthur, and provides an introduction to those
unfamiliar.... Full of battling knights and romance, this is a
must." --School Library Journal "Readers will be dying to
fill in the gaps of Guinevere's memory and to continue the
atmospheric adventure in this Arthurian retelling."
