Caius has been accused of many things in his life: murderer, traitor, master of the dark arts. He would admit to being well-versed in the dark arts. As do all who take a wrong turn on the winding path of life’s experiences, he had his reasons and he learned to embrace the darkness. Rhiannon was light to his darkness. She saw clearly, where others only saw shadows. Some speak of looking “through a … “through a glass darkly.” Not Rhiannon. Where Caius was concerned, she never saw through that glass darkly.
For the first time in his life, Caius thought he also saw through that glass clearly. From the moment he saw Rhiannon, from the first time they accidentally touched, he knew she would be his damnation.
Little did he know that glass was clouded, as she would also be his salvation.

I didn’t think I’d like this book before I started it but I was pleasantly surprised!
The world building on this story was wonderful. The writing was well written and I was speechless how well everything was coming together.
This book was magical and transported me to this other world of amazing characters
A magically story that is taking a new twist on the mythical Authur and Lady of the Lake. A joy to read with all the ups and downs.
I loved the relationship between Rhiannon and Cai, with the push and pull. When I wasn’t reading it, I was thinking about it. It’s a must-read.

Obsidian Hearts
By Linnea Fletcher
This is a great twist on a tried and true classic. Arthur and his knights embark on a journey and tale unlike any I’ve seen them in before. Reading the twists and turns of Obsidian Hearts, was like a breath of fresh air. A refreshing look into the untold tale of Avalon, Arthur, Merlin and more – like you’ve never seen them! I hope some of the holes in the plot line are answered in an upcoming sequel, it certainly left me wanting more! The writing mannerisms are unique and different from other stories I’ve read in the same genre, which was fun and exciting but also a bit confusing at times. Overall this was a fun story with unique characters set amongst a familiar scene with age old characters of the past.

A bit of what I liked – I loved the twist on a familiar tale and new views into lands we thought we already knew. Caius and Rhiannon have plenty of adventure, heartache, action, and romance along their journey which made this plot line a winner for me! I liked the feel of accuracy and the historical basis of this tale as well. It really felt like a genuine scene right out of the Pendragon’s realm.
A bit of what I didn’t like – Some scenes felt rushed and I wish we could have delved just a little deeper into them to really gain a stronger emotional attachment to the characters. There were also a few confusing switches between using titles as proper names, which was hard to wrap my brain around in the beginning of the book.
I’m pleased to announce Obsidian Heart’s earned 4 stars from me! Its a solid, well written book with a great plot line and so many more possibilities for more adventures!
This was a great tale, with huge plot line potential, but it didn’t make Luna’s List at this time
it was a pleasure to read your work Linnea Fletcher and I’m super excited to see what the furture holds for Avalon!
