Cursed by Thomas Wheeler
3.0

I shouldn’t be disappointed, but I am. While I knew Nimue’s fate likely would be the same as in the original tale, I wish we could have seen her in a slightly different light. The story had great potential to show a very powerful and capable female lead, but sadly we instead get a female lead who is too easily tempted by the power of the sword. I don’t understand why she was made to struggle so much with corruption, as I’ve rarely seen Arthur portrayed this way in other retellings.
