Product Description
I've not read any books in this category before. I'm not even sure that one existed until Andre Norton wrote this one. It's a mixture of historical fiction and science fiction that puts a unique face on Arthurian literature. I was sceptical about reading this novel when I first picked it up. However, I was hooked from the first page on. It's written with such a different perspective that it grabs your attention and keeps it right through to the end. In fact, I wish she would have continued this book in a trilogy or even a series. It's that good!
In this story of Merlin, Nimue and Arthur, their characters are given an extra dimension. Merlin and Arthur are half human, half alien (of the light-good), and Nimue is of the half human and alien of the dark forces. Their struggles of good vs. evil are captivating and exciting. Kept me turning page after page.
