This as a very unimpressive story. At least the author does give her motivations to write this story. It is after all part of the famous tale Le Morte d'Arthur. It is not all her fault it was so boring.
The book has none of the characters we grew to love in the series, other then Morgan. But even her presence is not enough to make this interesting. I kept waiting for a connection with the Arthurian mythos, but I found none. It is just a classic tale of chivalry retold with some more sober lenses, without all the magical fantasy and perfectly virtuous knights you would expect.
This review and some others express some of my sentiments.
