I started with book one of this series on a Saturday and ten days later I had read cover to cover each of the nine books and now wait with rapt anticipation for the final installment. As a student of romance literature and a huge fan of the Artherian legand, the series held me captive from word one. Wilson has crafted one of the truest romance tales since the Romance of the Rose. The desperate degree of forbidden and unrequited love speaks to the deepest level of desire as well as the honor and cataclysmic power of love. The author takes considerable license with the legend, which rather than detracting from the readers connection to it, allowed me to feel as though I was reading the tale whole and new for the first time. The nature of the author's license actually enabled me to feel connected with the plot and the characters in a way that I have never known before. The emotional consequence of reading this series is the most exquisite and delicious torture that I have ever known in literature

I loved this entire series. After the first book, which I couldn't put down, I got the rest of the series and submersed myself into Celtic Britain. For a history buff like me the series has everything -- detail, battles, emotion, romance and accuracy.
Warning! This series is highly addictive! Clear your calendar first.

This series of books is one of the better renditions of the Arthurian Legend I have read. If you are looking for a Camelot fairytale, look elsewhere. However, if you are looking for a narrative that places you in the middle of post-Roman Briton, with convincing characters and exciting battle scenes and situations, I can highly recommend this series. I found it hard to put down once I started reading. There are currently 9 books in the series with the 10th, and final volume, due for release later this year.
