Through her own marriage to Uriens of North Wales, Morgaine works to strengthen the cause of Avalon. She returns briefly to the Isle of Mists, only to discover that the time is not yet ripe for her to reign. Book Three concludes with the arrival of young Gwydion (Mordred) on the scene.

An enjoyable continuation of the story.Epic
That Morgaine sure gets into all sorts of trouble. Reading this book made me ponder on the fact that usually in battle, both sides believe they are fighting for what's right. It's all about perspective.
Truth said, I've read the four books one after another, nonstopping to swallow. I have no opinion of each in particular.
Sometimes I don't really know how I should feel about a book. This is always the case when I read any book from the Mists of Avalon series and it wasn't any different with this one. This book is not exactly boring. I just got to a point in the story where I just can't stand any of the characters. Not even Morgana. In fact, I spent more time trying not to just burn this book rather than enjoying it properly. Gwenhwyfar is possibly the most annoying, stupid, acidic, venomous, rancid, bitter,
This was my favorite installation of the series so far, as even more foreshadowing and plot arcs are being fulfilled. That said, some of the characters act incredibly irrationally for the sake of the plot, or so it seemed to me. I'm still excited to see what happens in the fourth book, but I doubt I'll continue with the series after that.
These books have all ended abruptly which, I know, is in part because I'm listening on CD, and you can't really know when the ending is coming. The reader of the story is wonderful!I didn't enjoy this book as well as the others, but it's still entertaining. I can't stand Gwen's character.
