At the time this blog post is published, this novella is available for free. Simone’s New Camelot series wrecked me as a reader in all the best ways, often leaving me in tears and leading to some virtual flailing at a fellow fan via text. The journey was worth every bit of the angst, and … Continue reading Book Review: Sherwood by Sierra Simone
Review: “American Squire” (New Camelot #5) by Sierra Simone
This short story ties together the worlds of New Camelot and Thornchapel by following a former White House assistant on a mysterious errand to England. The actual interactions portrayed between Ryan and Sidney are both sexy and sweet, as appropriate, and I’d happily read more about their burgeoning relationship. What elevates this story from sexy … Continue reading Review: “American Squire” (New Camelot #5) by Sierra Simone
Review: Cards of Love: The Moon (New Camelot #4) by Sierra Simone
This short and sexy follow-up to the New Camelot trilogy does much to explain Merlin’s role in the whole situation. It portrays two very different relationships across time in a way that also shows off how Simone uses point-of-view to amplify her storytelling. I do have some questions about the off-screen events that bring Merlin … Continue reading Review: Cards of Love: The Moon (New Camelot #4) by Sierra Simone
Review: American King (New Camelot #3) by Sierra Simone

Review: American Prince (New Camelot #2) by Sierra Simone
I like Greer Galloway. She’s an okay character. She’ll do well as the First Lady (once she ever gets to fulfill the role). Her history(ies) with Ash and Embry were intriguing and their future will, I’m sure, be equally so. But she’s got absolutely nothing on Embry Moore. The history between Embry and Ash is … Continue reading Review: American Prince (New Camelot #2) by Sierra Simone
Review: American Queen (New Camelot #1) by Sierra Simone
I adore Arthurian literature, but not all of it. Lancelot has especially never been a particular favorite, for much the same reason Simone explains in this book: He’s a fanfic self-insert by the French so they could play with chivalry in a set of tales too old for such a relatively modern social construct. I … Continue reading Review: American Queen (New Camelot #1) by Sierra Simone
