5🌟 This cover makes WAY more sense now that I've read the book. It was a lovely introduction to the series, and a great novella over all. I love the inclusion of all the celtic mythology. It's even sent me back to my celtic mythology references. I'm so excited to dig into this series, the Welsh brand of celtic Mythology, and the absolute #nerdventure ahead of me.

This about sums up how I feel about Christian soteriology and metaphysics. You end up in a wave of circular logic that never allows for anyone who is not Christian to ever do any good...and yet people who are not Christian do good every day (and they certainly don't vote for a man they describe as a "horrible human being" but "God loves Republicans"). This certainly explains to me many people's atavism in their spiritual lives these days.

GingerAntics This is an absolutely bloody brilliant piece of fiction. I love it so feckin much!!! As if I didn't already love #sarahwoodbury enough!!! #thelastpendragon #theology #mythology #celticmythology #soteriology #metaphysics 6y

I've got my old friend out to help me with this awesome series of novellas, especially since I am not nearly as familiar with the Welsh iteration of celtic Mythology as I am the Irish (and to a lesser extent the Scottish). I think it's only fitting for this series, seeing as the cover art is Edward Burne-Jones's Arthur in Avalon.

GingerAntics @Texreader if there were an award for the most random source to have on hand, I just might have just won it. lol Let the nerdventure begin!! #nerdventure 6y

JazzFeathers There was a time when l was obsessed with Arthurian stories and their different intwrpretations, both ancient and new. I'm still very interested, actually. 6y
GingerAntics @Texreader not cover to cover because it really is a dictionary, but I've never read any of the Welsh entries, so I'm working on that now. I've also never read the forward or intro, so I think I'm going to take a look at those as well. 6y
GingerAntics @JazzFeathers oh I love the Arthur legends. I really wanted to read the legends in high school but nsvdt got to. I think this is something I need to attempt. I wonder if there is a king Arthur reading challenge. If not, there should totally be one. I wonder how you make a reading challenge? Hm. lol 6y

This made me think of #macbeth from our discussions in the #shakespearereadalong. I just love with things link up like that. #shakespeare #sarahwoodbury #thelastpendragon

TheBookHippie Yes!!!!!!!❤️ 6y
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie didn't we have this very conversation about Macbeth?! lol Love that I've found it in another book completely unrelated. 6y
TheBookHippie @GingerAntics yes!!! Now, I have to add this ! 6y

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie if you like king arthur legends or historical fiction you'll love it!!! It's SO good. 6y
TheBookHippie @GingerAntics ohhhh I do like King Arthur !! And I love historical fiction ...I need more time for reading! Ha! 6y
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie don't we all? lol I'm trying to find a King Arthur reading challenge for next year, but I'm no finding anything. I may just create a list of the books I currently would like to read of the legends (Mists of Avalon, Pendragon Cycle, etc) and attempt to knock out the list next year. 6y
readinginthedark Yes, self-fulfilling prophecy is a big topic in Shakespeare! 5y

Love finding alternate covers for books which I tend to go looking for right before I start a book...in this case I've got the whole 8 book series in one volume (thank God for ebooks)!!! I am so excited for this series. I'm hoping its as good as all the other #sarahwoodbury @Texreader and I have read. I'm sure it will be. I'm so behind on this, I wouldn't doubt if she's already finished the whole thing by now. #thelastpendragon #alternatebookcover

Texreader Nope I have only finished book 1. Taking a break to finish my #litsyatoz challenge 6y
GingerAntics @Texreader oh good I have a chance to catch up. Bloody snapchat bowling and Krikey! It's the Irwins are distracting me. 6y

I‘m jumping into the next series!

GingerAntics I've got that one on my phone and I was just thinking the same thing. I'm planning on getting the whole series in one volume again when I get paid on Tuesday. 6y
GingerAntics I'm jumping in, now!!! 6y
Texreader @GingerAntics Be ready for lots of supernatural stuff. A lot different from her other books. I‘m still trying to decide if I like it as much 6y

Loving free Sarah Woodbury books. The prequel to one series, “Daughter of Time,” and the first book of two other series, “Cold My Heart” and “The Last Pendragon.” If the Gareth and Gwen series is any indication, these series are going to be must reads, too. (Yes, I do have a “Sarah Woodbury” collection/shelf.)

GingerAntics The Last Pendragon Saga is all novellas, though, so it may be better to get the whole thing in one volume for $14.99 (8 novellas that appear to be $2.99 each). I was excited for that one (I do love the Arthur legends), but maybe I won‘t start there. 6y
