The Midsummer Wife
The Midsummer Wife: Book One of The Heirs to Camelot | Jacqueline Church Simonds
2 posts | 1 read | 4 to read
The reincarnated souls of King Arthur, Merlin, and an anxiety-ridden priestess return to save Britain after a devastating nuclear attack, only to find an old foe: Morgaine. After a nuclear attack on London that heralds The Time Foretold, Ava Cerdwin, the high priestess in charge of fulfilling a 1,500-year-old prophecy, must assist the heirs of King Arthur and Merlin in healing the devastated country. The descendants of Britain’s great men of legend have kept the myths and relics for sixty-one generations, but no one is quite clear on what they must do next. Nothing goes as planned: Ava falls for the wrong heir, the panic attacks are getting worse, the complex obligations of reincarnation are straining old relationships, and Morgaine and her henchwomen are trying to kill them. Somehow, some way, Ava has to make the Healing happen, or Britain is finished. The Midsummer Wife, Book One of the Heirs to Camelot is an urban fantasy that combines Arthurian lore, love, and a race to a breathtaking finish.

This is an urban fantasy with a side helping of Arthurian legend. It‘s a tantalizing reading combination, especially in a time when we know our leaders by their tweets rather than by their ancestry. I like an engaging good versus evil story like The Midsummer Wife, especially when the real world is stressful. Strong writing, and I‘m already on to the sequel!

New read—it‘s a mash up of post-apocalyptic urban fantasy and Arthurian legend. Maybe not the best writing ever, but not bad either. After about 20%, I‘m glad I agreed to read and review.
