Theanthology is divided into three sections: Past, Present and Future. Past was retellings set in the medieval era; Present was retellings set any time from the late 19th century to the modern era; and Future was futuristic sci-fi Arthuriana. I had quite different feelings about each section.

If you like twists on the King Arthur stories, if you enjoy fantasy and science fiction, and if you like more POC and queer people in your stories, I think you will enjoy Sword, Stone, Table. But if you are coming into this as a romance reader, please do be aware that while there are plenty of happy endings in this book, there are quite a few tragedies as well. Which, after all, reflects the source material.
