Can't Wait Wednesday #2 - The Guinevere Deception by Kiersten White


How's it going everyone!  I hope you're all having a great day.  Today, I'm back with another Can't Wait Wednesday.  If you're not familiar with this meme, this is a bookish meme hosted by Tressa over at Wishful Endings that spotlights upcoming release books that we're excited for.  Let's jump right in with the next book I'm excited for!

About the Book:
Title: The Guinevere Deception
Author: Kiersten White
Release Date: November 5, 2019
Series: Camelot Rising #1
Genre: Historical Fantasy
Pages: 352

Summary:
Princess Guinevere has come to Camelot to wed a stranger: the charismatic King Arthur. With magic clawing at the kingdom's borders, the great wizard Merlin conjured a solution--send in Guinevere to be Arthur's wife . . . and his protector from those who want to see the young king's idyllic city fail. The catch? Guinevere's real name--and her true identity--is a secret. She is a changeling, a girl who has given up everything to protect Camelot.

To keep Arthur safe, Guinevere must navigate a court in which the old--including Arthur's own family--demand things continue as they have been, and the new--those drawn by the dream of Camelot--fight for a better way to live. And always, in the green hearts of forests and the black depths of lakes, magic lies in wait to reclaim the land.

Deadly jousts, duplicitous knights, and forbidden romances are nothing compared to the greatest threat of all: the girl with the long black hair, riding on horseback through the dark woods toward Arthur. Because when your whole existence is a lie, how can you trust even yourself?


My Thoughts on The Guinevere Deception:
I've seen this book floating around since it was announced and based on the summary of the book, I can honestly say this has definitely piqued my interests.  A story about Camalot, Merlin, King Arther, and Guinevere?  Sign me up!  I'm definitely looking forward to reading this when it comes out!
