Summary: The Child Queen is Horrible!!!!!!
Review: I can not believe how such a trash could be published! An editor would have helped cut out all the giddy and silly actions and slutty reasonings this book-if you'd call it that- produces. Female teenagers who talk on the phone all day, paint their fingernails every week, and constantly fix their hair will even find this half as entertaining as THE MIST OF THE AVALONS. What a horrible reproduction of THE MIST OF THE AVALONS, it's depressing.

Summary: It is one of my favorites!
Review: I read this book when I was youger, and it is still a book that I fall back to reading over and over. It is a quiet and calming book and McKenzie is an author with a dream. She is insperational in telling the tale from a females view point. I am now in university studying to become an English major, and in my books this is still the best book I have ever read. She brings you to the softer side of Camelot. This is the first book that brought me to love the Arthurian Legand. In my advice, it is a book worthy to anyone reading.

Summary: Characters were too one dimensional....
Review: This book had great potential to become an instant hit and a true DelRay Discovery, but it lacked in one element...reality. The characters were too perfect, not one of them I can mention has a fault at all, which makes it seem like they were all mechanical animals or robots instead of human "beings". Another thing was that the situations given were highly unbelieveable, I mean, come on, is Arthur THAT nice? Everything was so artificial, like they were all faking it and grinning like a barrel of idiots at the pathetic weakling who weeped and whined through out the whole novel. For a first rate fantasy, you may want to try the well known "The Mist of the Avalons" or even "Court Duel"...at least in those two, reality and magic is in place and setting.

Summary: mildly entertaining
Review: The book was somewhat entertaining, but the story was not told particularly well. Guinevere, Lancelot and Arthur seem to be the personification of ideal people in a Medieval European setting. They do not come alive. The characters seem buffeted by fate with very little will of their own. Their complete perfection in the face of other's complete cruelty create a story not tragic, but pathetic. If it is a good tale of Arthur you seek, try Marion Zimmer Bradley or T.H. White.

Summary: great book
Review: This is an amazing book. It is the only Arthurian book other than "The Mists of Avalon" that I was able to stay awake through. Like Mists, The Child Queen has a female viewpoint -- but in this book the viewpoint is Guinevere's, and she's a _good_ character. McKenzie stays away from all the standard fantasy cliches and makes the characters come alive. A great read.

Summary: Your female aimed teenage trash of a book
Review: The typical average ho-hum female falls for king story. A pretty interesting book to start off with, the only positive thing I could see from my point of view was that the author decided to use a female instead of a male as narrator. Overall, an average book if you can't find anything else worth reading.

Summary: Eh, I'm not into romance or sappy stuff in books
Review: This was a pretty decent book to read when it started off, just that towards the middle things started getting crazily predictable that the story was ruined. There was no fun or excitement that I would usually expect from a King Arthur book.

Summary: B O R I N G
Review: This is such a dull-in-the-doldrums book. There was nothing stylish or lyrical about the authors story. The words are so terribly American English, a bad thing if you're going to write about rulers of England, especially from such a long time ago. The Guinevere thing was unusual, for the good you can say. But it could have been written better.

Summary: ONE OF THE WORST BOOKS I'VE EVER READ!!!
Review: Yeah, the Guinevere point of view was different, but I passed throught this book idly, it kept dragging on and on; surprised I didn't doze off in the middle. I like these feminism books, where the females point of view is taken instead of the usual male ( Try THE FORESTWIFE by THERESA TOMLINSON, taken from Maid Marian's point of view instead of Robin Hoods. I found The Forestwife much more enjoyable. the foreign words and old English dialect, it felt like I was in their age and time, unlike this book).

Summary: WHY?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Review: This book is full of utter teenage female cheap romances. This is such a trashy cheap dungy book that was humiliating to read. I keep on thinking what posessed me to buy this book, nevertheless why I read this trash at all. My, my, I am so steamed, after wandering around that book for 400 and some odd pages, I expected something to thank me at the end for even attempting to read this. I will never read a book with such an ugly and dull cover, hey, authestics are what makes a book readable or great, and judging by this cover, this book sucked.
