A funny and lighthearted rom-com set in an alternative Camelot, where many years after King Arthur’s reign, his descendants are up to no good.
I was immediately drawn to A Knight’s Tale description and it delivered! It was silly and modern, I fell for these characters and their struggles (and shenanigans!) I wanted a few more sword fights but the finale was acceptable.
While I connected more with Gwen’s story, her romance was developed significantly better than Arthur’s, many of the relationships were heartwarming and sweet. But Arthur also had his moments! I thought him and Sidney were two peas in a pod, they were hilarious and ridiculous and I wouldn’t mind reading more of their adventures.
Overall it’s a pretty wholesome book and I love the contrast of making it a queer story set in a medieval period!
Thank you to Netgalley and Wednesday Books for an early copy to review.
