☆☆☆☆☆
“A worthy new entry to Arthurian Lore... I encourage Arthurian buffs and fans of heroic literature to read this delightful addition to King Arthur's fascinating world.”
— Jeffrey Bampos

☆☆☆☆☆
“A fascinating read… this was a studious work of Arthurian lore, the author is clearly at ease and well-versed in this period of history, the early medieval, as well as the Arthurian Legend.
— Dr. Brandon Neff

☆☆☆☆☆
“A strong start to the Ruin of Britain trilogy.”
— Kathryn McLeer

☆☆☆☆
"Stories of Arthur seem to be becoming a bit of a crowded field. This one though stands out in a couple of ways. It is deep rooted in post Roman history, with Britain's Dark Age as much a character as Arthur himself. Arthur is well presented, an ex-soldier of Rome returned home to bring the light back to his land... Would recommend.”
— Adam Lofthouse

☆☆☆☆
"This book was interesting. It was obviously really well researched and you could tell that the author had a huge amount of knowledge about Arthurian legends and Roman Britain.”
— Garrett Keenahan, Librarian

☆☆☆☆
“A unique perspective and retelling of the original story.”
— Vanshika Sakal
