About this listen

The first volume in a stunning trilogy set in the world of Arthurian legend and told from the perspective of its traditional antagonist, Morgan Le Fay.

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.

Now, in a world of knights and chivalry where she is all but voiceless, Morgan is faced with a choice: to follow her own fierce intelligence or to submit to the limitations powerful men would place upon her. She cannot, she will not choose submission.

So begins this richly told debut from Sophie Keetch, which traces Morgan’s journey to adulthood. She will fall in love with a man saved from the sea. She will defy kings and suffer the consequences. At times she will almost despair. But ultimately she will discover a power in herself that even Merlin is awed by–a power that will give her control of her own destiny and which see her join Arthur at Camelot.

And even this is only a beginning…

Critic reviews

"An enthralling new take on the Arthurian legend, beautifully written, superbly narrated." (The Times)

"Evocative, haunting and utterly addictive, this is a book to lose yourself in." (Tracy Borman, author of The King's Witch)

"Keetch’s Morgan does not disappoint … literally fire and a perfect harbinger of the woman Morgan is destined to become!" (Stacey Thomas, author of The Revels)

"This is the Arthurian legend as you rarely see it: told not by Uther, Arthur or Merlin, or indeed their male champions, but by the complicated woman they condemned. Keetch's Morgan is vulnerable, courageous and defiant. She makes the legend hers, and I can't wait to accompany her on the next part of the journey. For lovers of the untold story, Morgan Is My Name is a convincing and compelling read." (Lucy Holland, author of Sistersong)

I have had my ear phones all but glued to my ears to have no distractions. Brilliantly read and a fantastic retelling. Arthurian Legend is my favourite and I am ready for almost any take. I wouldn't have predicted admiring Morgan as much as I do and disliking a previous favourite but this story changed so much. I cannot recommend it enough to anyone who loves Arthurian Legend, historical fiction or with strong female leads. I miss these people already and cannot wait for the next book. (Please let Vanessa Kirby read that one too).

Hard to know what to say to explain why I enjoyed this book so much, It has a good storyline that generally moves along but there are just a couple of places where it feels a bit dragged out. It's quite a gentle listen, not a roller coaster ride of plot and excitement, but no less interesting for that. And the characters of Morgan and those around her are a clever mix of folk story, legend and human that really works well.
A rather sudden end leaves me assuming there will be a sequel. And if there is I will be buying it.

A pleasant surprise
