Child of the Northern Spring

Child of the Northern Spring

This is the first book in a trilogy.  I have never read anything by this author before and I liked the writing of this book.  It reminded me of Phillipa Gregory, one of my favorite authors.  This book was about Guinevere and her life and legend.  It was interesting to read about Guinevere's family and childhood; that was something that didn't happen in Morte D'Arthur, which I read in college.  Guinevere was a tough female character and I liked that about her.  I would recommend this book to fans of historical fiction.  The writing was sophisticated, the characters stem from legendary stories and there was enough action and romance to keep readers engaged.

This book was sent to me by SourceBooks to review.
