Arthurian legend has always held a lot of appeal for me, and so this book is particularly appealing to me. My bookshelf will definitely include this book, since it seems well-researched and flawlessly executed. Thanks for the review.

I'm a big fan of Arthurian legends. The mystiscm and chivalry in them keeps you on edge. Though the limelight is on Arthur and his Knights Merlin is Arthur's pillar of success. His wisdom and mastery of the mystic arts as a warlock insure Arthur's reign is successful

I like the aspect of Nina, despite being a young girl, seems to be more intelligent in exploring England, and she happens to discover more.

This is a unique and controversial take on religion. The book's fantasy plotcand Nina's story is not necessarily my kind of read, however, I would highly recommend it. Congratulations on the BOTD.

This sounds like a book that will keep me immersed from start till finish! On first impression, I imagined it would be a cliché book on, "dad died, time for a new scenery". but while it does take some aspect from the expected norm, I am definitely intrigued and curious to see what happens when the narrative shifts from first person, to third person. Thanks for the recommendation!

I'm more interested in the legends than anything else. I guess that'll be my prime focus if I pick up this book. Thanks for the review.

Sounds more like Historical fiction than Sci-Fi/Fantasy despite heavily leaning on mythology. Even though I am not a big fan of the latter the subject matter is of great interest to me, thereby it is already decided that I will get the entire series! Congrats with BOTD!

This is an interesting science fiction fantasy novel highlighting a Celtic Heroine's journey, history, reincarnation, discovery, and adventure. The book is temporarily free on Amazon Kindle and has an inciteful OnlineBookClub review. Congrats

Wow...! I love books that deal with history and still have a plot. The fact that it intermingled cults, gods and goddesses will make it even better. I usually always get into a book and then find out I missed reading the first two or three books. It's great that this one stands alone. Will definitely check it out.

This review is quite detailed. I'm a bit conflicted as to whether I will read it but I might as well consider it just to see how far I can stretch my mind. Although I can't help but wonder if the book is in any way related to the series "Merlin"!?.

Seeing that this book is about folklore makes really really interested. I’ve always enjoyed the classical areas of literature, so seeing folklore introduced is extremely exciting.

Sounds like a great fantasy with Arthurian legends, but not a fan of the explicit scenes and the way the book talks about religion. I'll give it a pass but it sounds like it has an interesting twist on well-known legends.

An incredible book and the review makes it even more interesting. I'll definitely have to check this out, romantic fiction that has elements of ancient mysticism. By the way the book sounds quite fascinating. I come from the land that has these aspects. The more ancient the better, for me.
Nice work.
