Lady Nimue enters King Arthur’s court
under false pretenses. An agent of Morgan, Arthur’s half
sister, she is sent to corrupt Merlin, to prevent him from
counseling the king. She cannot allow herself to fail.
Morgan holds her sisters as collateral. But she also has the
Sight and Merlin, fearing for his life, has ordered her
death.
Who hasn’t heard of Merlin? In this
original twist of the Arthurian legend, he’s driven by the
Iselin Dal, voices that are at the heart of his power. The
Voices show him the creations, which he in turn builds. The
Voices demand that he cannot have intercourse with any woman
unless he wishes to be driven insane. Lady Nimue is a hard
temptation to resist.
Camelot is in danger, but the tool
Merlin would use to save them will also be their undoing.
Only Nimue can stop him.
Kim Knox doesn’t disappoint in this
beautifully crafted novella. This is an author to keep your
eye on. Artfully drawn and complex characters, a plot that
keeps you guessing to the very end, and a sweet sex scene
reminiscent of Nora Roberts' style, lend a timeless quality
to Nimue’s Price. You definitely want to add
this to your collection. |
