When I read the book's title I wondered why the characters sound so familiar, and now I do. From watching the series Merlin, based on Arthurian Legends. Great series, so I hope the book is as wonderful. Nice review.

I am glad that I read this review after I had read the sample. I do not like the fact that the book refers to the Christian religion as a cult, so I have decided to pass on this story. Thanks for the hoenst review! :tiphat:

This book brings a new twist to Arthurian legend and Celtic folklore. Nina sounds like an interesting character, and I would love to see what links her to Merlin. Thanks for the great review!

Fans of fantasy fiction will surely like today's Book of the Day! It "delves into the depths of Celtic and Arthurian legends". There is an entertaining storyline intertwined with magical destinations and historical places. Congratulations on the BOTD!

The story, although generic seems to have a unique approach and interesting storyline. The incorporation of romance to this mystic story generates more interest. I am intrigued of the main character nina and her adventures. Congrats BOTD!

I'll be honest. I didn't read much of what was probably a very well executed review. This series is on my read list. While it may be able to stand on its own, I want to experience it firsthand.

This book certainly awakened my fascination with Celtic folklore again and I love how there are also elements of Arthurian legends in the novel. The romance plot really tugged at my heart but the blend of mysticism and ancient tales made the story worth reading. Congrats on BOTD!

A romance fiction would be lovely to read right now. Though I am not aware of Celtic and Arthurian legends, so I may encounter certain difficulties. Though the sci-fi/fantasy sounds amazing. An amazing job with the review.
