This wasn't one of my favorites, but I did like the Guinevere/Lancelot story arc.

This is one of the more serious of the Tales, dealing as it does with grief, revenge, trauma, and antisemitism. It is also one of the most beautiful, taking a truly bizarre story from canon and weaving it into a tale of healing and growth.

Also, cmon, there's ladies supporting ladies. How would this NOT be my favorite?

Oh! I loved it I loved it I loved it!!!!!
What amazes me about this series so far is how every book is as good as the one before it. I have yet to be disappointed. Perhaps I will be, with the eventual climax I assume will have to come, but right now I have nothing but giggles and the sweet taste of a good book. Packed with action, adventure, awesome characters...can you ask for more?
I suppose one might say a romance but whenever Morris adds a romance it is generally oddly done...so take my word for it, this book is excellent without one.
I loved the "sisterhood" feeling, how Sarah (the main character) goes from seeking revenge to caring about the group of women who end up surrounding her. So adorable.
All the characters are, really. It was great to "hear back" from Piers and Gawaine and Terence and Sir Kai and even Lancelot, who I previously disliked and have grudgingly come to appreciate.
I've always held a dislike for Arthinian legends but this series....
It is just to good to pass up. Well worth a read!!!
