Once & Future by Cory McCarthy, A.R. Capetta
3.0
This isn't my favorite King Arthur retelling, but it was good. The dystopian sci-fi take was done well. Merlin and Morgana were my favorite characters. I didn't love The Lady of the Lake's character. She seemed too petulant and evil. Granted this is from Merlin's POV, and in the legend, she does imprison him under a tree, but overall, she's good.
I don't want to say too much. If you're familiar with the Arthurian legend, then you more or less know the story. There are some twists in this one, but nothing that completely changes the legend. Well, the ending is a little different from the lore, but it sets up for the sequel which might put it back on track.
While I did enjoy this story, I didn't enjoy it enough to read the sequel.
