Story5 out of 5 stars 642
Having escaped an unhappy marriage, Morgan finds herself in Camelot–the city of dreams and peace. Her brother, King Arthur, treats her as a valued advisor and Morgan finally has recognition befitting her intelligence within Arthur’s trusted circle, despite a longstanding conflict with Queen Guinevere. But Morgan’s life is not without complications. Between a vengeful husband determined to snatch their son away, the strict ideals of court life, and a jealous rival for Arthur’s attentions in the sorcerer Merlin, gaining true recognition and freedom is a greater challenge than Morgan envisioned.

Even as a girl Morgan has always been wild, like the seas which batter the cliffs beneath her home, Tintagel Castle. But she has always been safe, too. Then one day her father is called away to a war from which he does not return. In his place comes the High King, Uther Pendragon, with the sorcerer Merlin lurking in his wake. Uther claims Morgan’s mother, the Lady Igraine as his queen.

Only half through and love it so much I had to write a review
Reviewed: 03-04-25
I had just finished a very heavy book and needed a book to distract and envelop me. On a lark I thought “why not it looks fine”…. This is a beautifully written take on an old tale. It is fresh and smart and the narrator is terrific. I’m loving it. Much more than ever anticipated.

I was so excited to read her new book…

I forced my way through the “too many” accents which should not be done if not done well or even good enough. The story moved around so often I could not catch rhythm. Too many stories in one novel. Pergola should have been a book of short stories. I was sad because I adore this author. And I love the male narrator in other books so very much. The female Italian accents were brutal. I am so sorry. It just wasn’t for my ears in any way.

No. It is a simple word, uttered on a summer porch in 1936. And it will haunt Kitty Milton for the rest of her life. Kitty and her husband, Ogden, are both from families considered the backbone of the country. But this refusal will come to be Kitty’s defining moment, and its consequences will ripple through the Milton family for generations. For while they summer on their island in Maine, anchored as they are to the way things have always been, the winds of change are beginning to stir.

Narration was magical. The story had depth
Reviewed: 04-18-21
The narration, Orlagh Cassidy, Hawaii enjoy hearing audible books from was so mellifluous and graceful and elegant reading so many varied voices in this particular book. I think for me this was the best part. The story while it could feel trait about a very wealthy family wound up being much deeper than I anticipated. I did have a little bit of trouble jumping from generation to generationBut by the end I had sorted it all out. A beautiful And heartbreaking story. Read beautifully

It's 1949, and South Philadelphia bursts with opportunity during the postwar boom. The Palazzini Cab Company & Western Union Telegraph Office, owned and operated by Dominic Palazzini and his three sons, is flourishing: Business is good, and they're surrounded by sympathetic wives and daughters-in-law, with grandchildren on the way. But a decades-long feud that split Dominic and his brother, Mike, and their once-close families sets the stage for a rematch.
