The Pendragon Chronicles

review 1: A very well written re-telling of the Tristan and Isolde legend. There were a lot of elements I did not expect to be included such as the focus on the actual war between the Britons and the Saxons but it was well done. It did drag at some points but I kept coming back to it. It made me want to get the next book in the series as well to see where Nestvold is going to take the character of Iseult. I do not know if anyone can state with absolute certainty that everything in the book is historically accurate but it was one of the more accurate ones that I have read. If you love Arthurian legend the way I do, you will go and pick up this book.
review 2: I’m so glad Yseult is available in English now. I first read Yseult when it was an audio book in German and in a... morell the bookshops here (in Germany). I wanted a great escape to more mystical times and a way to improve my German, and I found both! I listened to Yseult’s story every night for several weeks while I churned away on my exercise bike. She took me to a time when love, war and religion were lived more intensely than now, or at least in my life now J. Thank you, Ruth Nestvold, for such a wild and poignant ride into the past! I wish I were Yseult. The world needs more strong women with wills of steel and hearts of gold. less
