Runescape empty throne room
A richly woven tale that transports you back in time to a world of chivalry and honour and jealousy and deceit The Empty Throne is the first in a trilogy to follow Arthurian legend from the point of view of Morgawse a powerful figure that is little known beyond elect fans of this fantasy genre 152 First if you have not read Lavinia s series on Guinevere and Morgan then do so first This series will make much sense if you do I fully enjoyed this series while it had parts that crossed over from each of the other series Guinevere and Morgan Morgawse had her own intriguing and interesting story to tell Lots of twists and the truth that wasn t quite made clear in the Morgan series is revealed Wow just wow 152 
Everything you could want and expect from a medieval romance good pace plenty of bad guys 152 This one is a retelling of common Arthurian lore and focuses on Morgawse a queen of a northern kingdom trapped in an abusive and unhappy marriage While this is a unique viewpoint for Arthurian stories I felt that this was an otherwise rather unoriginal take on the material And unfortunately predictable if you know your Arthurian basics you know the plot already. Book the empty throne summary Morgawse is Uther s stepdaughter by marriage after Uther kills her father in battle her mother marries the new king Morgawse is designed to be a strong assertive character and while she has her moments she s also very short sighted and impulsive and not as powerful as I hoped she would be The rest of the cast is similarly disappointing in their development Her sister Morgan is stiff and seems to do little than complain Arthur is just plain there s no hint of the great and incredible king he should be. The empty throne historical fiction author It s no spoiler to tell you she ends up in a romantic and sexual relationship with young King Arthur the synposis and quote from traditional Arthurian texts tells you itself This book felt like it was targeted for an adult audience but the sex scenes in it are not very explicit and pretty bland It was kinda disappointing. The time of the empty throne 5 152 This is a wonderfully descriptive tale of Arthurian days from the perspective of Morgawse I first read the Guinevere series followed by Morgan s view I had my opinion of Morgawse but as in real life there are just dimensions I was so pleased to find out my opinion was too shallow I can already tell that I will have to re read the first series a sign of a book that stays with you 152 FREE on today 11 23 2021 152 DNF Got to 41% and lost the will to go on 152

The empty throne book series order Overall this was a disappointment for me and while it s the first book in a series and also has a spinoff about Morgan I have absolutely no interest in continuing it.2
