Continuing the Mists of Avalon series retelling the legends of King Arthur from the point of view of the women in the stories. Book 2 focuses more on the marriage of Arthur to Gwenhwyfar (the welsh spelling) and the influence that Gwenhwyfar has upon Arthur as she tries to convince him to break his vow to Avalon and declare his kingdom to be Christian. This book, like the previous, also examines the Christian vs the druid religions and generally comes down in favour of the latter. Unfortunately Gwenhwyfar is a very un-likeable character in pretty much every way, which took a star off this book for me since it's irritating just to read her parts.
