Who is Sophie Keetch?

Sophie Keetch is a Welsh novelist who has done something rather bold: she has taken one of literature’s most maligned villainesses and handed her the pen. A graduate of Cardiff University, where she read English Literature and first fell under the spell of Arthurian legend, Keetch writes from the green heart of South Wales, close to the very landscapes her stories inhabit.

Her gift is for reclamation. Where centuries of storytelling cast Morgan le Fay as a scheming enchantress, Keetch reimagines her as a clever, wounded, fiercely intelligent woman navigating a world built by and for men. The result is historical fantasy with a beating feminist heart: atmospheric, emotionally exact, and steeped in the chivalric colour of Camelot without ever losing sight of the human cost beneath the magic.

Her arrival was no quiet affair. Morgan Is My Name, her debut, became a number one Audible bestseller and was named among the Sunday Times’ best historical fiction of 2023, marking Keetch as one of the most assured new voices in mythic retelling.

Within our catalogue you will find the trilogy’s later chapters, and they are among its richest. Le Fay, the second instalment, follows Morgan into Camelot itself, where recognition, rivalry with Queen Guinevere, and the perilous politics of her brother Arthur’s court all close in at once. Narrated with poise by Miranda Raison, it has drawn some of Keetch’s warmest listener reviews.

The saga reaches its tempest in Storm Over Camelot, the finale, in which grief hardens into vengeance and Morgan becomes a force of retribution against the kingdom she once served. Voiced by Gemma Whelan, it is the trilogy’s most propulsive listen and its highest rated with us.

Newcomers are best beginning at the start with Morgan Is My Name before letting these two carry the story home. Explore both audiobooks below.
