Gr 9 Up–An ahistorical King Arthur series in the vibe of CW’s
Reign, this second installment revolves almost entirely around the complex romantic relationships developed in
The Other Merlin. Emry is finally at court under her own name, and not pretending to be her twin brother, but her magic is growing odd and out of control. Arthur and Guinevere are engaged to be married, but both want to escape the betrothal as Guin is pregnant with Emry’s twin’s baby. Schneider’s second entry is less humorous than the first, focusing on character development, more queer romance, and setting up plot points for future novels. Main characters are assumed white, with racial diversity in the secondary cast.
VERDICT A fun and effervescent historical fantasy, this one is recommended for purchase where the first installment circulates.
