Camelot

When I reached about one third of the book, I had to check whether Giles Kristian was indeed the writer of this novel...

Unfortunately, this one failed to win me over. Without a firm basis on the Arthurian saga, this version of the battle against the Saxons during Arthur's later years seemed to me a poor attempt, similar to a ridiculous Hollywood movie or TV series. Full of stereotypical characters, the young, naive former monk, the pagan girl who gradually has the hots for said young man but also takes time to ridicule his beliefs, and extremely vicious, disrespectful view of the Christian religion.

Well, dear writer, you're free to go live in a cave, if you wish.

Repetition, wooden dialogue. I couldn't believe that this was written by the same author...Sorry, but no.

Many thanks to Transworld Digital and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
