Recommended by MaryAnn Shank

Why I love this book:

This is not the Arthurian legend from the musical “Camelot,” nor from any of the other versions of that legend that have ever been written.

This is a tale of a young woman growing into her immense magical powers, powers strong enough to save a king. That king is her half-brother, King Arthur. It is a tale bursting with palace intrigue and rivalries amongst the mystical faeries. And if you were lured into believing that Guenivere was a sweet and lovely little lady …. well, think again.

Merlin is there, of course, as a shadowy figure who once taught Morgana, and now is taught by her. And Morgana’s young assistant will pull at your heart.

This is a tale unparalleled in the Arthurian tradition, and one that will haunt you for a very long time.

Cozy up … or fly away! Adventure … Romance … Inspiration … every week, straight to your IN box!

Applause! Applause!

This is Arthurian retelling at its best: a world you can get lost in, a story you’ll want to return to, and a Morgan le Fay so real she seems as if she truly could’ve walked this earth.

Mary McMyne, author of A Rose by Any Other Name

A gripping story brimming with magic, The Faerie Morgana is a brilliant new addition to the canon of Arthurian tales.

Megan Barnard, author of The Winter Goddess

Louisa Morgan weaves the myth and magic of Arthuriana into a sparkling new story full of intrigue, enchantment, and the strong threads of women’s voices. The Faerie Morgana is mythic reimagining at its best!

Rowenna Miller, author of The Palace of Illusions

Talk a Little, Talk a Lot

All great reads, like this one, have themes or ideas, or just hints, for discussion topics in your book club. Here are a few ideas for you:

Of all of the tales of the Arthurian legend that you may know of, which do you enjoy the most? Which have you remembered the longest? How does this story compare to that one?
So what about Guenivere? She is a troublesome character in any version, a sweet little princess who cheats on her adoring husband. How would you write her?
This story presents very unusual versions of King Arthur and Merlin, among others. What rights do we have as 21st century readers/writers to tweak these old legends? How, in fact, can we ever determine which version(s) of the old legend are the original ones?
