Rezension von JuliaUnterhaltsam, abenteuerlich und sehr niedlich, wenn die Hauptfiguren sich und ihre Gefühle (füreinander) entdecken. Die beiden Erzählstimmen sind unterschiedlich liebenswert: Art - humorvoll, zynisch und hoffnungslos und Gwen - unsicher, nerdy und suchend. Beide Protagonist*innen erleben eine wundersame Transformation in Camelot, die King-Arthur-Fans genauso abholt wie Leserinnen, die nach einer leichtherzigen, romantischen Coming-of-Age-Geschichte suchen. Als Hörbuch unbedingt zu empfehlen.
