Camelot Series:
Prelude to Camelot:
This is a look at the Arthurian legend when the principals involved are quite young and Uther Pendragon yet lives. Fans of the legend of King Arthur should enjoy the interesting twists.
Romantic Times
It is evident that Ms. Breeding has studied Arthurian lore and loves her subject because she breathes life into her characters. This story contains magic and magical creatures, many battles and lusty men and women. Be warned that this book is not for the faint of heart.
Mystique Books
I absolutely love Grail Lore stories, but you don’t often see author with the passion, imagination and love for details as you do with Cynthia Breeding. You simply forget you are reading a much-told tale as Breeding makes this series fresh. Walking that razor’s edge is hard to do, but she dances along that edge with light and magic.

Top pick, August 2008
This is an extremely complex story…I enjoyed the thread linking Paganism and Christianity. While the legend of Camelot is familiar, Ms. Breeding takes you beyond.
Coffee Time Romances
Cynthia Breeding’s Fate of Camelot focuses on the later days of Camelot: the Grail Quest and King Arthur’s healing at Avalon. Ms. Breeding reshapes the medieval Arthurian texts by returning to the texts themselves, history, as well as modern scholarship and presents a vision of the more mysterious aspects of the Arthurian legends. A treat for medieval Arthurian junkies!

Camelot’s Enchantment
Camelot’s Enchantment is not a retelling of the story as we know it. Instead, it extends the story into the land of Faerie in such a way that seems tangible. We get to know Lancelot and Gwenhwyfar as well as the Faerie queen, Morgan, and her demigod consort, Cernunnos. Anyone who loves reading stories of Arthur, Gwenhwyfar and Lancelot will love this book.
Janice, San Antonio Romance Authors
Cynthia Breeding once again transports readers to another realm where fairies rule and legends live on. It's a thrilling world where the Queen of Fairie learns the truth about love and two souls set upon a magical journey that begins with the unfurling of a long-awaited prophecy.

Sandra Madden, USA TODAY bestselling author
There three stories are exciting and the heroines embark on adventures which truly test their mettle. Jean Lafitte’s privateers are devastating to a young heroine’s heart.
The historical aspect takes the reader back to the time when pirates and privateers sailed the high seas, but the writer does not overload the book with information dumps.
I highly recommend this book.
