"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

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

must." -School Library Journal

and to continue the atmospheric adventure in this Arthurian
retelling." -Bulletin
