Language: English ASIN: B00MRN8XL6 Text-to-Speech: Enabled Book Description Publication Date: November 1st 2014 Morgan le Fay, 6th-century Queen of Gore and the only major character not killed off by Mark Twain in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, vows revenge upon the Yankee Hank Morgan. She casts a spell to take her to 1879 Connecticut so she may waylay Sir Boss before he can travel back in time to destroy her world. But the spell misses by 300 miles and 200 years, landing her in the Washington, D.C., of 2079, replete with flying limousines, hovering office buildings, virtual-reality television, and sundry other technological marvels. Whatever is a time-displaced queen of magic and minions to do? Why, rebuild her kingdom, of course—two kingdoms, in fact: as Campaign Boss for the reelection of American President Malory Beckham Hinton, and as owner of the London Knights world-champion baseball franchise. Written as though by the old master himself, King Arthur’s Sister in Washington’s Court by Mark Twain as channeled by Kim Iverson Headlee offers laughs, love, and a candid look at American society, popular culture, politics, baseball...and the human heart. Most Helpful Customer Reviews 4.0 out of 5 stars Going into this book I wasn't sure I would like it. I was very surprised November 5th 2014 By Wanda Green Swafford Format: Kindle Edition I have never been a big fan of "time travel" books. Going into this book I wasn't sure I would like it. I was very surprised. I really liked Morgan and the baseball story line. We get to see a different side of Morgan then what most people think of. By the end I was disappointed it was over and wishing there was more. I wasn't ready to leave the time and story of Morgan. 5.0 out of 5 stars I had a pleasant surprise... November 30th 2014 By M.C. Simon Format: Kindle Edition I am writing this review from the position of the person who did not read Mark Twain’s story and who is not a fan of King Arthur’s epoch. However, I have to admit that time travel is one of my passions. I had a pleasant surprise finding that the main character had to travel forward in time. Her reason for doing it was also a hook for me. It was appealing to read about a 6th-century Queen’s time travel in the future. It was amusing to read about her thoughts and feelings in the end of the 21th century, a completely new Era filled with so many technological marvels. I found here an interesting approach of interactions between people living in such different epochs. I needed some time for the language used to reel me in, but once this happened, it was a nice journey to take. If this somehow happens to you also, be patient. After several pages, you will find yourself immersed in this book and when the end arrives, you will not want to put it down from your hands. You will find many aspects to follow here … romance, politics, business, magic, sports… and much more. I recommend reading this book especially if you are an Arthurian reader and a sport or politics fanatic. In addition, if you are passionate about time travel, I would recommend this story line concept to you. Seeing the comparison between the lives of the same character in two different worlds, while reading it, a question shadowed me. Will Morgan choose to go back in her original time period, where her brother King Arthur was dying or will she remain in the new time, where so much is happening? I will not tell you her final choice. You will have to find this out for yourself. Therefore, read it and tell me what you think.  Sharing Widget |
