Throughout the book she questions herself and tries to understand who she really is, but she feels lost. And she also misses Mordred’s presence (me too, Guinevere, me too). The first novel completely conquered my heart and I’m happy to say that I did enjoy a lot even this second book.Īfter the choice Guivenere took at the end of last book, she now finds herself in Camelot at Arthur’s side, but she’s still trying to find her place.
The Camelot Betrayal is the second instalment in her Camelot Rising series. If you have already read my spoiler-free review about The Guinevere Deception you know how much I love Kiersten White.

I am doing what I choose, when I choose, how I choose.” If you haven’t read this book or the previous one yet, do not go ahead. Is her deception at an end? And who is she really deceiving–Camelot, or herself? Not in the form of the Dark Queen or an invading army, but in the form of the real Guinevere’s younger sister. When a rescue goes awry and results in the death of something precious, a devastated Guinevere returns to Camelot to find the greatest threat yet has arrived. The more she tries to claim herself as queen, the more she wonders if Mordred was right: she doesn’t belong. She has no sense of who she truly was before she was Guinevere. The closer she gets to Brangien, pining for her lost love Isolde, Lancelot, fighting to prove her worth as Queen’s knight, and Arthur, everything to everyone and thus never quite enough for Guinevere–the more she realizes how empty she is.

Guinevere might have accepted her role, but she still cannot find a place for herself in all of it. Yet every night, dreams of darkness and unknowable power plague her. King Arthur is expanding his kingdom’s influence with Queen Guinevere at his side. Synopsis: Everything is as it should be in Camelot. Title: The Camelot Betrayal (Camelot Rising #2)
