This book seems interesting with a mix of legend, fantasy and romance. The review gives an in-depth of its storyline. Definitely on my reading list. Great review.

I am not a fan of series books but the fact that this is a stand-alone would make me read it. Congratulations on being the book of the day.

This is a mysterious story about young Nina and her family history. Congratulations BOTD!

I'm totally sold. It seems the book has got a little of everything I love and enjoy. Though I'm not familiar with Celtic mythologies, I've always liked books that deal with legends and mysteries. So, I'm looking forward to reading this one.
Thank you for your review.

This one definitely sounds like a must read! I'm not typically a fan of fantasy, but I always like references to mythology. You did this book justice in this review because I am ready to read it for myself. Great job!

It would be interesting to see if Merlin would be free.

Thank you for the great review.

I'll have to skip this book because I'm not a fan of romance, and I don't like to read a sequel of a series without knowing the prequels first. Moreover, Celtic and Arthurian legends are beyond my field of interest. This book is fascinating to those who like such stories. Congratulations on the BOTD.

The merlin merlin we all know? If it then this sure is a nice book to read. Am always fascinated by magical worlds anyway

The world of ancient religions, cults, gods, and goddesses is very much a part of this story. This book may be better for open-minded readers with the ability to see past some of the book's references to the Christian religion as a cult and other references to religion that some readers may find displeasing. I enthusiastically recommend it to readers who love an entertaining story that takes you back into the mists of Avalon, where time and history weave together with the present.

I consider myself open-minded enough. And didn't all big religions start as cults?
I've always felt fascinated by legends. Also, it takes a talented and seasoned author to be able to weave a congruent tale from multiple perspectives and across different timelines. This seems like a book I would enjoy.
Thank you for your detailed review!

This book sounds phenomenal and stunning. I do believe that the suspense incorporated in this book made it more creative and engaging, I think all readers would like this. Thanks for the marvelous review!

The plot is intriguing and seems interesting, but I don't like reading fantasy, especially if it has magic and cults.Thanks for the review

Hmmm, this sounds good. Celtic legends, magical destinations, and historical places, accompanied with good characters. The only downside is that it is a part of the series. Although you said this could easily be read as a standalone, I never liked starting series from the middle. I suppose I’d better look for the first book and start with that!

Thanks for a passionate review!

I have some knowledge of Celtic folklore and would love to read this fascinating book. I believe that with Merlin in, it will be an amazing book to read. Thank you for the detailed review and for pointing out the positives and negatives of the book. Congrats on the BOTD.
