Fantastical tale, talented writer!

The second in a trilogy, Excalibur and the Holy Grail continues 12 years on from The Quest for Excalibur. Arianna returns to Camelot, and her 'son' King Galahad, bringing with her Joseph - her son, who suffers from Tourettes and ODD. Her husband, Jack, and daughter, Alexis also venture for the first time, desbelievingly, into this 6th century world of magic and Kings.The niggling problem that goes with reading this is certain aspects of grammar. For those things that a writer cannot see through being too close to her story, an outside editor would be advisable to pick these things up.However, Harris weaves an enchantingly magical story, using personal experience in her characters and showing her incredible research skills. She binds the Arthurian legends intricately with the fictional story to seamlessly create a new history that pulls the reader in with both ears and keeps them there until the very end.The narrative flows smoothly and well, taking the story on at the perfect speed and Harris' characters are comfortably flawed. She shows their thoughts and doubts and imperfections well, joining them alongside their bravery and courage, to give a full impression of who is who and why.It ends by informing us of the plot of the next book, leaving the reader curious and eager to read (sorry, still have to wait for that one!), after winding up skillfully the plotlines and loose ends.An excellent book with solid writing, Harris is an asset to the world of writing, and of Arthurian hobbyists.-- Review from angiehulme.com

A really great story

After finishing the first book of this series, The Quest for Excalibur, I was very excited to begin reading this book, the second in the series. This book is great. I enjoyed it from cover to cover. It takes you on a journey from the craziness of today to the amazing world of Arthurian Times. It was very easy to read and i enjoyed it greatly.

Excalibur and the Holy Grail: an eyeopening journey

Being of Catholic faith, I was never exposed to different forms of religion while growing up, and found various parts of it contradicting what I personally believe. Excalibur and the Holy Grail allowed me to find a deeper spiritual connection to what I really believe in, and proves that by being true to yourself, you can't go wrong in life. Life is not easy, and one may have to go through various paths to find their purpose in life, and this book shows that by taking chances and following your heart, you will find your place in the circle of life.
