myosotis_author 's review for:
The Mists of Avalon
by Marion Zimmer Bradley
Again, this book is among the few I actually adored back in the day.
When I read this as a teen, it made me feel empowered.
I was an outcast in some ways, and reading about Morgana's tale made me feel as if I too could take a hold of destiny... and when she consistently fails, I realizes that all humans are creatures made of trials and error, stuck in a constant wheel between dreams and reality, what they want and what they achieve.
I loved the setting.
Arturian legend has always been fascinating to me.
I liked having a different point of view, seeing the story from all the other characters around Arthur, seeing how everyone's just a pawn in twisted games between powerful men and women, priest and priestesess, christians and pagans.
I cried so many times, wheeped with the characters, felt my heart swell with rage, wrath, deception, betrayal.
It's a roller coaster.
Prepare.
