Well this was a wonderful well written fantasy based on the Arthurian legends with a twist. I thought Morgan was a really well written character and watching her develop further and struggling to decide what she wants to do with her future made her feel extremely relatable. The author did a fantastic job of blending the Arthurian legends and modern times. The story is well written and definitely hooks you right in. We have witches, fae, dragons, and the different Camelot characters all enriching the story. This is an absolutely must read for fantasy and Arthurian legend fans. I can’t wait to read the next book!

Fantastic spin on the Arthurian myths!
Morgan le Fay is a witch, albeit not a very good one in modern London. She was raised by her Aunt Nim and has grown up hearing all about Camelot and how she is the lost heir to the throne. Morgan believed that they were just fairytales until one day when she & her aunt are attacked and a mysterious stranger named Emerys whisks her through a portal to Camelot.
Camelot is very different to how Morgan imagined it, having moved with the times. Morgan’s magic snaps into being as soon as she arrives in Camelot but she is untrained and it is unpredictable. Emerys and her apprentice only have a short time to teach Morgan to control it before the tournament where she will face Prince Arthur in the final bout if she can manage to get that far. With a bit of luck and inspiration from the dead Aunt Nim, she defies the odds when faced with witches, fae and dragons throughout the rounds.
This is a fast-paced book that grabs you from the start – full of action and intrigue, and a dash of romance.

I hadn’t read anything by this author before, but the cover of this book is beautifully intriguing which made it impossible to ignore. Once I read the synopsis, I knew I was going to love it! This is the first book in the Guardians of Camelot series and it is quite an interesting start. I am a huge fan of all things related to Arthurian legends which made me a giant sucker for this book. I dove right in and didn’t come up for air until I devoured the entire thing! The characters were incredibly well-developed, but Morgan is definitely my favorite. Talia and Taron are magnificent as well. The story flows well and everything unfolds naturally. If this is also a new author for you, don’t hesitate to branch out! This was a fantastic urban fantasy read and I am on my way now to pick up the next book in this series.

Her Sapphire Blade is book one of The Gaurdians of Camelot series by Sarah Biglow. I am an absolute sucker for absolutely anything to do with Camelot and the Authurian Legends. This was no exception, and when I found this I just knew I was going to love it! Morgan was relatable in so many ways, and this was such a wonderfully unique twist to the story and world we all know. I absolutely cannot wait to see what this series has to hold!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

An enjoyable and engaging Arthurian inspired portal fantasy adventure. Morgan le Fey lives in modern day London leading a normal life despite her family’s witchy history. Morgan can’t even cast simple spells and when her magic fails to protect her loved ones she believes she’s not a witch. Her Aunt always told her that she was the lost heir of Camelot, but she thought it was just a story. However, when a stranger appears telling her she has a destiny to fulfil she realises it wasn’t just a story. As soon as she steps through the portal into Camelot she feels her magic. In honour of Prince Arthur’s coronation a tournament of magical champions is being held, but Morgan will need to master her skills if she’s to take part. Morgan must decide if proving her claim to the crown and taking back her throne is worth risking her life for. The descriptive narrative brought the magical world of Camelot vividly to life making me feel immersed in the story. The storyline had me hooked and I loved the retelling of the Prince Arthur story, especially with Morgan le Fey being the main character. I look forward to future books in this new series.

This story is a brilliant take on such a well-known story. They author has found a unique was to introduce a twist to a story most already know the ending of. I loved the host of characters introduced throughout this book. They were varied and interesting, each adding something different to the overall story.
This author is one I am slowly becoming more familiar with and, with each book I add to the collection, the more I enjoy her work. This book is a great fantasy story, set between modern-day London and other world Camelot. I was drawn into the story straight away and thoroughly enjoyed the book.

This book had and held my attention right from the beginning pages. This story had an interesting twist with legends around king Arthur. As Morgan she believed that everything was a fairy tale and that’s all it was, until the truth started coming out and now those fairy tales aren’t just tales anymore. Morgan is an incredible female heroin, that’s strong willed, and isn’t afraid to stand her ground. If you like fairy tales turned real, to dragons, witches, the supernatural, magic and so much more, this story will have you engaged from the beginning. I can’t wait to read more into this tale.

4 Stars

 

Her Sapphire Blade is the first book in the Guardians of Camelot series by Sarah Biglow. Having loved Ms. Biglow’s Seasons of Magic series and finding out that this story is part of that ‘universe’, made reading this a no-brainer for me, and I one-clicked this baby, happily setting off on the adventure.
This is an Arthurian inspired urban fantasy, with quite a bit of a twist to the classic we know and love. Providing an action-packed adventure full of magic, challenges, a tournament, guardian warriors, witches/Fae/dragons, portals, fate/destiny, high stakes, dramatic developments, mythology, secrets, discovery, betrayal/deception, the paranormal, intrigue, mystery, suspense, danger, tension, and much more.
Even though Morgan le Fey knew magic was real, she didn’t believe any of the stories that her Aunt Nim had been telling her all her life. They were just fairytales- weren’t they? But with the death of her aunt, modern day London gives way to Camelot and a destiny she never anticipated. Now she will need to face challenges that she isn’t prepared for, let alone have any hope of overcoming. The weight of ‘claiming her destiny’ sits heavily on her shoulders. What happens makes for an enchanting tale.
I’m really looking forward to the rest of this series- bring on ‘Her Amber Chalice’ (Book #2).
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Sarah Biglow!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book to my surprise turned out to be a very interesting read, a creative spin to the Arthurian and Camelot lore. I am a fan of this genre and have watched quite a few movies which involve king Arthur , his round table ,his knights and the legendary sword, the Excalibur. Morgan LeFey, despite being repeatedly told by her grand mother that she has magical skills, turns a deaf ear to them until a stranger knocks on her door asking her to claim her destiny. When she is transported into the magical world of Camelot, the magic beckons her and she learns to wield it properly. But now she is up against the witches, the dragons and other adversaries only to take on Arthur for the throne.
This was such an engaging and delightful read. I cannot wait for the next in the series.

A retelling of Camelot but Morgan is the heir. The story has witches, fae, and dragons. It is a really cute story. It was detailed and progressed fairly quickly. I think it could have been longer if time was skipped at certain spots. It seemed to be written with mostly the intense scenes there and a lot of the slower parts or story filler parts left out. It was non-spicy but did have some adult language.

This is the first book in the Guardians of Camelot Series. This was a really enjoyable fantasy adventure. It was packed with action, twists, secrets, deceptions and finding your true place where you belong.

Morgan has grown up in London with her Aunt Nim. She’s always had magic but it’s very weak. She thinks of herself as a normal person. And even though her Aunt tells her stories about Camelot, and the fact she is a princess Morgan believes they are just stories made up to entertain her as a child. They couldn’t possible be true right?

When her Aunt Nim is attacked and killed Morgan is transported to Camelot. She is told she needs to fight to prove herself and regain her claim to the throne. But can she do it? Is she really this powerful witch everyone seems to think she is? Will her magic even work? And will she be able to overcome all the challenges and obstacles in front of her?

This was a captivating read that I couldn’t put down. I can’t wait to read more.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Her Sapphire Blade is the first book in the Guardians of Camelot series. It is an exciting portal fantasy that draws on Arthurian legends within a modern setting. Morgan lives in modern London, in a world where magic users are discrete but present in society. Her own magic is weak in comparison to those around her, but this changes when she returns to Camelot, a land she knows only from fairy stories.

I enjoyed the cast of characters in this book. I hope we get to see more of Taron and Talia in the rest of the series! Morgan meets many different characters as she navigates the tournament at the centre of this book, it will be interesting to see who comes back in the later books.

I found the tournament plot particularly enjoyable to read after watching lots of Olympic events this summer! It’s kind of like fantasy Olympics and reading those scenes felt like the tension of watching sports and hoping my favourite athletes did enough to get to the next level.

This book gets five stars from me! I’d recommend it to fans of urban fantasy and mythology-inspired stories. I’m looking forward to the next book!

Reimagining of Camelot and King Arthur. While I’ve not been on who’s typically read books on this subject I was much intrigued on this book. I will definitely say, it was a fantastic read. I finished it in 24 hours. I didn’t want to put it down. Morgan is great character showing strength and perseverance with everything she endured in only a couple of weeks time span. Aunt Nim’s “bed time story” wasn’t just a fairytale after all.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first delightful book in the Guardians of Camelot series by Sarah Biglow. It is a well-developed and imaginative paranormal romance tale with witches, warriors, fae, dragons, royalty, portals, and more.
“Her Sapphire Blade” is the story of Morgan, an urban fantasy mixed with Arthurian myth—a legendary figure Arthur and Camelot to be exact. Morgan is anything but a typical woman. Amongst all the madness, Morgan has strength, smarts, and hope but little magic. Anything and everything she does can and will go wrong. She must learn who she is and how to wield her magic. She is a very entertaining character, and I enjoyed seeing her come into her own.

An exciting and intriguing journey is what you will find between these pages as Morgan returns to a place that she has known as only legend, to a realm she once belonged. There are many perils along the way in this action-packed adventure—betrayal, deception, threats, danger, secrets, lies, drama, but there is also love, mischief, and a little mayhem.
Sarah has done a fantastic job weaving this wonderful tale and drawing readers into this magical world.
This was a great start to the series. I look forward to seeing what this talented author does next. Beware: there is a cliffhanger.

Her Sapphire Blade (Guardians of Camelot Series) by Sarah Biglow

Despite her family’s witchy history, Morgan’s life in modern-day London has always been depressingly normal. True, her aunt has always insisted that Morgan is the lost heir to Camelot, but that idea is entirely laughable. She can’t even cast the simplest of spells. And when her magic fails to protect her loved ones, Morgan is certain she’s not meant to be a witch.
Until a stranger appears on her doorstep, insisting that she has a destiny to fulfill in a kingdom she always believed was fantasy.
The moment she steps through the portal into present-day Camelot, the connection to her magic she’s longed for snaps to attention. Even still, she’ll need to master her skills if she has any chance of taking back her throne.
She arrives on the eve of a tournament of magical champions in honor of Prince Arthur’s impending coronation. Barely able to gain entrance to the challenge, Morgan must best witches, fae and dragons for her chance to take on Arthur.
But even if she makes it to the final bout, proving her claim to the crown could cost her everything. Is this destiny worth risking her life for?

Spring's Calling (Seasons of Magic, #1)Spring’s Calling by Sarah Biglow

This is the beginning of a series, and it definitely sets it up for much more magic and mayhem to come. Ezri is a strong female protagonist while still being reliably human in her limits. There are so many moments I couldn’t help but sympathize with her and her struggles with both her family and work. If you’re looking for a paranormal detective story that kicks butt this is definitely my first pick for you. It will leave you on the edge of your seat and craving more. I will have to be getting my hands on book two to see where we will go now.

I didn’t know what to expect when first opening “Springs Calling” by Sarah Biglow. I have to say Sarah did not disappoint. Springs Calling is an urban crime fantasy with tons of twists and turns that keep you on edge. After losing her mother to a murder that everyone pretended did not happen, Ezri Trenton vowed to solve the murder herself. Now as a Boston rookie detective she is finally has the resources to do it. Solving her mothers murder is not easy especially when Sarah is hiding that she is a Witch and if she doesn’t already have enough on her plate, she is trying to solve a string of murder which seem to be related to a prophecy that just so happens to declare Ezri as the Savior. Ezri has amazing character development and must learn how to trust others. After a bit of a slow start, I couldn’t put this book down and have already started the next one

After reading the synopsis I was really looking forward to reading this book. I am not sure if I hyped it up so much that I let myself down but I found the book to be a bit blasé. The details were not impressively laid out and the storyline didn’t draw me into the story. That said the characters were good but needed fleshed out and some of the background information seems to make little connection with the story. Ezri could be a lot more than she is and I have hopes that the second book will have all those amazing, unique details that bring a story to life. I can see how this could be a really magical, suspenseful and captivating series. I truly hope book two will bring this interesting story to life.

Ezri grows up knowing that she has a prophecy to fulfill. When her mother is murdered tragically, and everyone seems to be fine with sweeping it under the rug, she vows to find her mother’s killer. Once she becomes a detective, she sets out to find out more about her mom’s death. However, murders around the Vernal Equinox begin happening around the city and she has to solve them first. Can she solve the murders before she has to fulfill the prophecy? Or are they part of it? Will she be able to find her mother’s murderer?

This is my first time reading this author and I really enjoyed it! The story flowed smoothly with the backstory interspersed at the right moments in the book. Ezri is a very angry, hurt person that has to move past her feelings of self-imposed isolation and allow others to help her fulfill her destiny. Past friends and family that she cut off come to her aid and show her grace in their assistance. I feel like the author did a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life in my mind. I enjoyed the way they interacted and related to each other.

This book was a good, clean language, detective-fantasy book!

While I am a huge fantasy lover I haven’t read very many urban fantasies before but this one is just simply amazing! This book combined all of my favorite things including crime, drama, magic, and more. The character development was simply amazing, the plot was so perfect that I was on the edge of my seat most the book. Ezri is a strong cop with the Boston police department and I loved following her magical journey through this story and I personally can’t wait to see what our author gives us next.
