That ending. It's definitely more of a filler book but I felt like it was laying more foundations for reveals in the next one. I loved being able to dive back into this Camelot world again.

The Camelot Betrayal is the second book in the Camelot Rising Trilogy. It is the story in which Queen Guinevere has decided to accept her role in Camelot despite continuing to question her true identity. She does not have many memories of her past and the more she tries to claim her role as Queen, the more empty she feels. The confusion is even more compounded when her sister comes to pay her an unexpected visit and recognizes her as the real Guinevere.
I loved this story so much and found myself attached to the characters. There was great character development and the world-building was phenomenal. Both were so rich with details. There were many things happening in this book and I was intrigued the whole way through to know what would happen next.
This book exceeded my expectations. I had just finished The Guinevere Deception right before starting this book, so I am happy that I got to read them close together. I am looking forward to the final book in this trilogy.
Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for giving me this opportunity to read this book as an ARC!

This was such a great book! I longed for a continuation of the series ever since I've read the first book and I'm so glad I continued. The story certainly progressed in ways I did not expect and I love all the characters - Guinevere, Arthur, Mordred, Lancelot, Brangien, Isolde, Lily. At first I was really annoyed by Lily's character but when we discovered who she really was, I felt really sorry for her. At times it might have been a bit boring but I just love the writing style and the premise of the Arthurian legends so much. I can't wait to read the final installment of the series!

An adventure that will keep you guessing for the whole ride.
The beginning of this book was a little slow for me. It seemed to follow the same thread as the first book Where Guienevear is trying to find her role in the kingdom of Chamalot and Arthur being aloof emotionally. She is constantly looking for magical threats and finding none. Things started to pick up speed in the second half we learn more about Mordred, his mother Morgana, and trying to figure out what Merlin was really up to. Guinevere finally gets to have her own adventure. She has to make some tough choices and deal with the consequences. Unfortunately, we don’t really get many answers and just as you think things are finally going to work out with her and Arthur, the book ends with a nice cliff hanger. It left things on a bit of a sour note for me. I’m not sure I’ll continue with this adventure into book 3.
