This is a take on King Authur and his knights of the round table. This story is just the beginning of this series. I feel like it ended at a good place, but there are still a lot of unknowns that will be dealt with in following books. I loved Fionna! She is strong, fierce, and loyal. She deals with a lot of conflict in this book that are both internal and external. I did get a bit frustrated with her at a time for some of her choices, but she is still my favorite character out of the bunch! This story did s great job at grabbing my attention and entangling me so that I cannot wait to read what happens next!
The Fifth Knight: An Arthurian Legend Reverse Harem Romance (The Knights of Caerleon Series Book 1) By Claire Luana and Jesikah Sundin I enjoyed reading this book, from the moment I started reading I was drawn into a world of fantasy, magic, action, and romance. I couldn’t put it down till I had read every page. I really liked the twists and turns on this version of the Legend of King Arthur. I think the Reverse Harem part of the story was written very well. The heroin Fionna is an awesome character, she is strong, and independent and I loved her. This is a must read to find out what sort of twists and turns there are in this particular story, but I will tell you that this is an exceptionally well written story that kept me captivated throughout. I highly recommend this book.

The Fifth Knight (The Knights of Caerleon #1) by Jesikah Sundin, Claire Luana 5 Stars
This book revolves around the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the round table. In Celtic mythology, there is a claim the the Tuatha De Danann (The Fae) had a hand in Arthur becoming king. The book incorporates that theory into the story. Not only do we have Arthur and his gorgeous knights but we have the Fae and the magic of Merlin and Morgana all in one exciting story.
Morgana has cursed Excalibur and the kingdom of Caerleon. Merlin has foreseen a fifth knight breaking the curse. Never in their wildest dreams did they think that it would be a female knight. Fiona is captivating with her otherworldly beauty. Though small, she is a fierce warrior who has stolen the Knights’ hearts. She is fated to be the one to lead them to the holy grail that will break the curse upon the land.
This is supposed to be a reverse harem book but compared to others that I have read, this one is pretty tame. Considering that Lancelot is cursed and Perceval has taken a vow of chastity, the situation makes it impossible for Fiona to be with all four. Since this is the first book in the Knights of Caerleon series, I’m assuming that there will be a slow build up until the reverse harem can be fully realized.
I did enjoy the book tremendously seeing as it was steeped in legend and mythology. The characters are strong and unique in their personalities. I think the authors did a brilliant job reinventing a story about King Arthur by incorporating historical facts. The attention to details in the vivid descriptions had me feeling like I was there as well. I was drawn in from the beginning until it ended. I was upset that it ended and eagerly await the next part in the series. Review by @annahirsch

The Fifth Knight: An Arthurian Legend Reverse Harem Romance by Claire Luana and Jesikah Sundin is the first book in the The Knights of Caerleon series. This book is not only a great collaboration of two authors – one I have read before and enjoyed the work of, one who was entirely new to me – but this is also a great reimagining of Arthur and The Knights of Camelot story that everyone knows. This book takes the tale and completely twists it. With the addition of a fifth, female Knight the authors manage to evolve a well known story and make it their own. The book was well written and well developed, with a clear direction. The characters worked well, you got the almost familiarity in Arthur as a character we already know all about, along with the newness of Fionna. For me this was a great first book to the series and I am looking forward to reading more.
The Fifth Knight (The Knights of Caerleon #1) By Claire Luana and Jesikah Sundin Rated 4 stars
This is a good solid story. It’s told from a time that had magic and faeries. Full of the tales from the knights of the round tables. Very enjoyable and not really what I thought it would be for a reverse harem. Each chapter is told from a different characters point of view. It’s kind of nice to see what everyone is thinking and how they are feeling or responding to what has happened. The characters are interesting. The fifth Knight is sneaky and strong and uses everything to get to become the a knight. The dialogue between the original four is fun and witty. They have obviously been friends for a bit. The story drew me in and kept me wondering what was going to happen. I loved the backgrounds and really felt myself transported to that era.
Make sure you read the historical notes at the back of the story. Very Interesting!

The Fifth Knight is the first book in The Knights of Caerleon Series by Claire Luana and Jesikah Sundin. Wow! What a fantastic collaboration this book has turned out to be. I am a big fan of Ms. Luana’s, but Ms. Sundin is a new-to-me author- but after reading this book, that’s something I plan on rectifying as soon as possible. These two authors really compliment each other’s style and this book reflects that in so many ways. From the fascinating and original storyline, to the polished writing, the brilliant world building, and wonderful characters- everything was really well thought out and developed, which made it all seem quite realistic and believable. It meshed so well, I certainly couldn’t tell which parts were written by whom. It all seemed to flow beautifully, a real credit to both their talents. This is a brilliant Arthurian fantasy- a reverse harem with plenty of swords and sorcery, magic, action, adventure, drama, revenge, plots, curses, the hand of fate, knights, Merlin, battles, suspense, spice, betrayal, hope, and surprises. King Arthur’s kingdom has been cursed, the fate of his realm looks dark. With Lancelot, Percival and Galahad by his side, their only hope is to find the fifth knight, foretold in prophecy to hold the power to break the curse. The very last thing they expected was to find the fifth knight, and find out that she is a woman… Fionna is a skilled warrior who is on a mission to save her family. She has her sights set on a magic sword, which leads her to Caerleon, Arthur and the knights. What ensues when she gets there and earns her place as a knight makes for an incredibly captivating story that I would definitely recommend to all fantasy, reverse harem, and Arthurian fans. I must admit when I first saw this book that I as a little worried that the whole reverse harem aspect of the story would overwhelm the fantasy/Arthurian side of the tale. But I needn’t have worried as Ms. Luana and Ms. Sundin wove a wonderful tapestry, where the reverse harem was just one element in an incredible, multi-layered story. I was pulled into the story and followed along cheering them on the whole way. There were times where things got quite complicated and difficult, which had me a little anxious to see how everything would work out. I read this book in an evening, just so I wouldn’t have to put it down. I love what these two wonderful authors have accomplished together, and I can not wait to read the rest of the series. Well done!

What a story that Claire Luana and Jesikah Sundin has written!!! The Fifth Knight is in the fantasy genre. There are a couple of familiar names in this story, Arthur, Lancelot, Percivial, and Merlin. These men were waiting for the “fifth knight” that Merlin predicted but they did not except a woman name Fionna. She is a fierce warrior. Fionna is also a independent and stubborn woman. I think that they three personalities go together. She is there to steal a faerie sword from the king. Fionna is conflicted about what she is about to do to help her family. This story is very well written and Claire and Jesikah is perfecting the story line with the other books in this series.
