*My Thoughts*

Note: This review contains NO spoilers

Wow! What a journey these characters are on! The storytelling is emotional and enchanting all rolled up together by action and adventure. All the characters continues on their quest to find more secrets and truths revealed. With every encounter they faced, they have grown from their experiences throughout their travels.

In this second installation of the series, Prince Merrick, Idrisa, and their companions learned so much to prepare, as much as possible, for what is to come. What a whirlwind of mystery and adventure they have embarked on which will, in the end, determine their future and fate. Come the end of this second book in the series, the intensity of the obstacles they face both emotionally and magically will help determine the fate of the realm.

I so look forward to reading the exciting and climatic conclusion to this epic fantasy adventure, and what happens to these amazing characters and their realm.

Author Mary Ting, again, captivates and enraptures readers with a magical and enthralling twist on the long time favorite King Arthur lore. Mary Ting has created a mesmerizing world and engaging complex characters.
