Before queenship and Camelot, Guinevere was a priestess of Avalon. She loved another before Arthur, a warrior who would one day betray her.
In the war-torn world of late fifth century Britain, young Guinevere faces a choice: stay with her family to defend her home at Northgallis from the Irish, or go to Avalon to seek help for the horrific visions that haunt her. The Sight calls her to Avalon, where she meets Morgan, a woman of questionable parentage who is destined to become her rival. As Guinevere matures to womanhood, she gains the powers of a priestess, and falls in love with a man who will be both her deepest love and her greatest mistake.
Just when Guinevere is able to envision a future in Avalon, tragedy forces her back home, into a world she barely recognizes, one in which her pagan faith, outspokenness, and proficiency in the magical and military arts are liabilities. When a chance reunion with her lover leads to disaster, she is cast out of Northgallis and into an uncertain future. As a new High King comes to power, Guinevere must navigate a world of political intrigue where unmarried women are valuable commodities and seemingly innocent actions can have life-altering consequences.
You may think you know the story of Guinevere, but you've never heard it like this: in her own words. Listen and you will hear the true story of Camelot and its queen.

Where does Daughter of Destiny rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I've received this copy for an honest review and I have to say even though I am not so into Historical Romances, Guinevere's Tale is one of the best of its kind I've read so far. The first book of continuing series, the story from Guinevere's side, a talented priestess of Avalon whose future is dictated by her status in society. I really enjoyed this book very much, it is very well written, Nicole Evelina did her homework before writing this book and it is an excellent job (mostly because historical fiction is fiction and not accurate in many events).Thanks a lot Nicole Evelina and of course Serena Scott Thomas for this book!
Excellent Read!

It was certainly a different take on the whole Camelot story.. I like this better.
The narration was great, and you could truly feel for these characters.
A great take on Guineveres

Any additional comments?
I enjoyed this tale very much.
Guinevere is the strong daughter of a Roman king and a mother who was part of the Votadini tribe.
Her maternal family are believers in the old religion of Avalon, and so Guinevere is sent there to study, where she meets Viviane and Morgan.
There is a plot twist that makes this book an overall worthwhile read.
Serena Scott Thomas did well with the narration.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, I love this take on Guinevere, in most stories about Merlin and Arthur she is seen as little more than a wife and then a betrayer. This book covers Guinevere's early life including her training at Avalon and it shows her in a new light, here we see her as a complete person with strengths and weaknesses, likes and dislikes etc.What about Serena Scott Thomas’s performance did you like?
I loved the character voices, the male voices were very well done which is always a challenge for a female narrator. Serena's narration allowed me to get lost in the story.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Yes, many times, both the story and the narration managed to draw me in and make me feel attached to the characters so I felt their joys and sorrows, loves and despair.Any additional comments?
If you like the story of Guinevere, Arthur and Merlin then I doubt you'd be disappointed by this telling of the story.I loved this book (in case the 5 star review didn't make that clear), I'm already looking forward to the next book and I'm hoping there are several more to come.

Guinevere as you have never seen her

Daughter of Destiny: Book 1 is the story of Guinevere's early life, from 11 years old to about 16, when she is betrothed to Authur. From what I have read previously on this subject, there are variations from what may or may not be the truth. Who really knows?
It was well written and Serena Scott Thomas does a fine job with the narration. This book was gifted to me for an honest review via Audiobook Boom! The next book in the series was also offered and I wish I had asked for that one too, as I really enjoyed this one!
Love the Subject
