I read the first two Persia Wolley books and the Sharyn Newmans when I was on a teenage Arthurian binge, but it takes a lot for me to like Guinevere and so i haven’t retained much of an impression of them, although I think I liked them.

Data point appreciated nonetheless!

Parke Godwin’s Beloved Exile is Guinevere after the death of Arthur, struggling to hold the kingdom together - third in his trilogy.

I remember that one! I think it skipped my mind because we were looking at female authors. I haven't read it since the first time, also in middle or high school. Does it hold up?

(Are any of Rosemary Sutcliff's Arthurians female-centric? I mostly read her Aquila novels, which means I got The Lantern Bearers and Sword at Sunset in the overlap and nothing else that I can remember.)
