I absolutely loved this book. Woven throughout the plot is the dynamic struggle between the old religion of Goddess worship and the rising spread of Catholicism. I found that fascinating. The characters are rich and real. You can love them or hate them. Morgaine was my favorite. I loved her strength and wisdom. This book will take you back to a time forgotten. I could imagine myself living at Avalon, working alongside the priestesses and the Druid priests, traveling to Camelot, living in the castle surrounded by servants, etc. This is an engaging and captivating book. I highly recommend it.
