Adding complexity to both Arthur and his knights, and doing it through
the eyes of a priestess, is a clever twist that holds the reader’s
attention from the very start. Despite the magical nature of this
fiction, Wherrett’s book seems far more real and accessible than
standard myths. By removing some of the romanticized aspects of this
subject matter, the book says something far more powerful about
leadership, personal origins, and the concept of destiny. Lady of the
Lake is a highly original take on Arthurian legend, and this sense of
originality makes the book a compelling read from start to finish.
