When Maidens Mourn by C.S. Harris

4.0

I was inclined to like this book right from the get-go when I first read it several years ago. I’ve long been a fan of the Arthurian legend and the art and academics surrounding it, and before this book was first published, I was involved in the discussion regarding the cover art as part of the author’s blog community.

Now that I’ve finally had time to return to the series with more life experience, it only grows better. I just love the character of Hero. I admire her self-possession and practicality. Sebastian’s awareness of the hidden gem she is continues to grow. As they’re still navigating that awkward newlywed stage of adjusting your life to have another person in it, along with the circumstances bringing them together in the first place, I have high hopes that their teamwork will only continue to grow as I reread the next volume and then move on to the books in the series I haven’t read yet.
