Here is another book that was on my "12 Books by 12 Friends" challenge list and I enjoyed this retelling of the King Arthur / Merlin tale. After thinking about it for a bit, it definitely gave me BBC Merlin vibes which I am 100% totally fine with because I love that show. I liked how they dealt with the Emry being in disguise and what happens when she is found out. It felt genuine and not too out of the box in the realm of fiction. Definitely a book I would recommend for those who love retellings of classical tales.
