Tome Thursday: Bound by Blood

 

Hello everyone!

 

Yes, you're seeing this right, this is once again NOT an ARC that I' reviewing.

 

What news, huh?!?

 

LOL.

 

Anyway, a while back - and I think it was quite a while back - I picked up a retelling of the Arthurian legend and fell in love with it, for multiple reasons.

 

One, it felt much closer to what might have actually happened back in the day, in terms of realism and the fact that Arthur was not actually a medieval king riding around in full armour, and two, because it was a story in which he didn't want Guinevere, but her brother.

I mean COME ON.

I was hooked, but it took me a bit to return to the series, which is what I'm doing tonight as you can see. The Sons of Britain has six books overall so I play to go through all of them, slowly.

Tonight it's Bound by Blood's turn, the sequel one.

Tome Thursday: Marked by Fire

 

Hello everyone!

 

Tonight we're covering a slightly different take on a well-known legend, and to be honest it was the best thing to happen to me in a while.

 

See, I've probably looked at or at least taken a peek at seventy percent of what's out there about this stuff, and most of it is pretty straight-forward at the end of the day. One guy, becomes king, marries a woman, second guy comes in.

 

I'm still salty because of First Knight but, I mean, what can you do?

 

This though, this is a little bit ... new.

 

Well alright, new to ME, maybe, would be better if I said it that way.

 

And man did I love it.

 

I didn't expect to as much as I ended up doing, but here we are, and I'm including it in my blog, so it MUST be that good, right?

 

Marked by Fire, by Mia West, is here.
