ARC Review: The Cleaving by Juliet McKenna

Published on April 10, 2023April 4, 2023 by Celeste9 Comments

Today I bring you a review of THE CLEAVING by Juliet McKenna. THE CLEAVING is an Arthurian retelling from Nimue’s point of view that also follows Ygraine, Morgana, and Guinevere. It provides an alternative perspect on Merlin and his disregard of the consequences for using magic to meddle in mortal fates.

Today’s review is about LEDGE by Stacey McEwan, a fast-paced, dark fantasy romance. At less than 300 pages, it’s an escapist read that I thought had influences from THE DARK CRYSTAL and THE HUNGER GAMES.
