Queen of Roses

 This is a dark fantasy romance inspired in the Arthurian legacy and the quest for Excalibur with a touch of the Fae world. It's a slow-burn romance with a lot of good things such as mythical creatures, tension, magic, betrayal, and unexpected twists.    The world building of this book is very good, and the character development is very well achieved. The plot is so captivating, and I couldn't stop reading since it is a fast-paced book with action and magic and twists.    I really liked the fact that the book was focused on the action and the intrigue of the plot and let the slow-burn romance happen in the background of the story. I really like the Arthurian legend and the way it was reimagined and bought to light in such a new way was impressive.    Overall, it was such a good read and I'm starting the next book right away since this one ended in a cliffhanger and I'm too anxious to find out what will come next in this story. I really recommended to everyone who enjoys a fantasy book that focus on the fantasy part and brings such a popular legend back to life in such an innovated way.    Thank you, NetGalley & the publisher, for approving me to read this arc and write this review. 

I really enjoyed this unique Arthurian retelling.
This book is full of action, interesting world building, great banter, a quest, one-tent trope, great imagery, love and betrayal.
This ended on a cliffhanger and I cannot wait to read the second book.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

An excellent book. I read it in one go, almost. It was easy to read, fast-paced and kept me interested throughout. The story runs along the lines of King Arthur's and the Sword of Excalibur tale - but a very different story still. Also the explicit passages were minimal, that was a tolerable amount for me. I would like to continue this series, very much. Glad I snagged this nice book for free from Kindle.
