As a life long sucker for Arthurian myth I knew from the beginning I would love this story. And while any knowledge of Arthur and the people of his round table predispositions certain expectations White keeps the reader guessing. The original tale is twisted just enough to remain captivating without seeming disconnected from the original tale. Every character of the main cast manages to endear themseleves. Even minor characters get their backstories and personalities without seeming as if they are forced on you. As a lover of magic systems the various types of magic keep me reeling with possibilities. They mamage to have just enough detailed explanation that you wonder what could be done with it but are not bogged down with unnecessary semantics. I thoroughly enjoyed (not) Guinevere's adventures both with magic, her past, and her relationships.

2nd Read: Okay. I have a solid theory on who Guinevere might be now. And I'm terrified that I'm right. Going to jump immediately into book two (thanks NetGalley!) and hopefully find out the answer..... and also hopefully get some good Guinevere/ Lancelot!!!
1st Read: I'm... so... confused???
I've never wanted to be wrong more than I did with this book. But at the same time I need to do a LOT more research because I WILL figure this out. Maybe. Full review to be published as soon as I wrap my head around everything at http://kaitplusbooks.com!
