![]() ![]() And through it all, the evolving relationship between Greer, Ash, and Embry hurtles toward an inevitable conclusion. ![]() However, the fantasy that I adore is picking apart the modern allegories to Arthurian characters. Greer is a little too perfect, despite her state history with relationships. Love that can’t exist in a modern world still limited by social constructs of relationships and heightened with the added burden of top-level American politics.įantasy infuses much of this text because so much of it shouldn’t necessarily be possible. ![]() The pain between these three characters is near-magical because it all comes from love. Precisely as I usually am with the love-triangle retellings of the sordid tale of Lancelot, Guinevere, and Arthur.Įxcept a good friend recommended this series to me, and she’s never steered me wrong. I was prepared to be annoyed by Embry Moore, to possibly be annoyed by Greer, and to roll my eyes at Ash a lot. ![]() Lancelot has especially never been a particular favorite, for much the same reason Simone explains in this book: He’s a fanfic self-insert by the French so they could play with chivalry in a set of tales too old for such a relatively modern social construct. I adore Arthurian literature, but not all of it. ![]()
