Waiting on Wednesday #9: Daughter of Camelot by Glynis Cooney

Waiting on Wednesday is sponsored over at Breaking the Spine


Daughter of Camelot by Glynis Cooney is due out September 24, 2013 from Mabon Publishing.

From Goodreads and the Publisher's website: "Raised in the shadow of a fort dedicated to training Knights of the Round Table, Deirdre thirsts for adventure. Born a twin, the soon to be 14 Deirdre dreams of having adventures like the noble men in her life. To prepare, she has her brother Rhys teach her secretly the combat lessons he learns as he prepares for his knighthood.

Instead at 14, Deirdre is sent with her older sister Nia to court to learn the etiquette and talents of a young woman.

Then crisis hits Camelot. Allegiances are challenged. Perceptions change. A prophecy foretelling the fall of King Arthur threatens to become a reality. Deirdre finds herself entangled in a deadly conspiracy that stretches deep into the very heart of Camelot. All Deirdre thought she knew and believed in is challenged when she embarks on a quest to defy Fate and save the King.

Filled with terrific suspense and budding romance, Daughter of Camelot is a fast paced adventure set against the turmoil at the end of the Arthurian era."

If you are a fan of Arthurian literature, like me, this looks like it will be an interesting title. I think it would also appeal to fans of medieval time period stories.

What book are you "waiting on" this week?

  1. I've read a few Arthurian books I loved. The cover looks quite ghostly on this one. Niiiice!
