The Eighth Day by Dianne K. Salerni

5.0

I loved this book for a lot of reasons... First, magic and fantasy genres usually make me happiest because it is a complete break from the mundane. Second, the way the story of Merlin and King Arthur was used to create this story was appealing and fun, pulling on old stories I barely remember to make a new world. Third, this story has made me want to go back and reread other books to have a more complete picture of how the legends played into this book. There are few books out there that inspire readers to read other specific books, which is a huge plus for this one.
Again I am finishing a children's/YA book and part of why I like it is because I know my child will love it. If this book leads her to the Round Table, I am all the more excited!
