"Think before acting," her father always warned. But Princess Guinevere is ruled by her heart. Her betrothal to King Arthur has not changed this.When Guinevere and Cedwyn's latest adventure takes a dangerous turn, they find themselves embroiled in a life-or-death struggle as foretold by Merlyn's Goddess of the Stones.
Renegades--foiled in their attempt to kidnap the princess--steal the children of Cadbury Castle to sell as slaves. Guinevere and Cedwyn vow to rescue the children, but a miscalculation puts them all in more danger. The plan quickly unravels, and Guinevere's impassioned decisions come crashing down as Cedwyn chooses to turn his dream of becoming a knight into reality. Will their courage be strong enough to survive, or will one make the ultimate sacrifice?"

I had the privilege of reading both GUINEVERE: ON THE EVE OF LEGEND and GUINEVERE: AT THE DAWN OF LEGEND and I can honestly say that I enjoyed both. They can be read separately but also together and they are both really great. Both books feature a different view of Guinevere when she is quite young and before she marries King Arthur. They show a fun loving girl who has to learn to grow up and accept responsibilities she doesn't think she is ready for. I love how the author ties in the magic of the world, and Merlin as her teacher and mentor.
The books show different times in Guinivere's life. The first when she was 12 going on 13 and the other when she is 15 and the kings and knights are at war. While the first book can be read completely on its own, the second book definitely leaves us hanging for the 3rd book. I look forward to finding out what Guinevere does to correct her mistakes and how it changes the course of her life in this version of the story!
I really did enjoy these books and I look forward to reading more by this author.
They are written for a middle grade and young adult audience but I think they can be easily enjoyed by all ages - I am proof of the! I highly recommend them.
I’m a retired high school English teacher. A devourer of books growing up, my profession introduced me to writings and authors from times long past. Through my studies and teaching, I fell in love with the Ancient and Medieval Worlds. Now, I hope to inspire young readers and those Young-at-Heart to read more through my Tales and Legends for Reluctant Readers set in these worlds—Ancient Egypt, Medieval Wales, and coming soon, a hair-raising adventure through ancient worlds in search of 5 rare Phoenix Feathers.
All of my books come with Free study guides and/or extensive Back-of-the-Book materials.
My husband and I love to travel. In 2008, we spent three weeks in Egypt traveling by local train from one end of the country to the other; in 2014, we spent three weeks in the UK driving over 1700 miles through England, Wales, and Scotland; and in 2016, we spent a week in Iceland. We’ve also traveled to Mexico, Jamaica, and Aruba. Our next big adventure will be to Greece and Italy.
When I’m not writing or traveling, our 4 grandkids keep us busy.
