An epic retelling of Arthurian legends with a fancy twist to the plot. It has everything you look for in a good book: an immersive world, captivating character back stories, and of course a mini dragon sidekick! I was happy to find that this storyline was not just a repeat of the same old stories we hear, but included many twists and turns. Overall, a great book- I definitely recommend to any fantasy or magic lovers!

A lighthearted adventure with some grisly bits about the Legend of King Arthur reimagined. Arthur’s son, Dave, has grown up believing a lie: that his father is only super-awesome in rather mundane ways, when in fact, he is none other than the King of Camelot. The genderbent Merlyn takes Dave under her wing to teach him how to suppress the growing threat of her power-hungry sister.
"Mirror Through Time” is good fantasy escapism for the nine-and-above crowd. I wish the MC had a few more faults to him, but at least Merlyn has some amusing bits where she does deceit for what she thinks is the greater good.
