Folklore was great...but felt very slow. Like at times I was the one trudging through a landscape that instead of being shortened by the folk was being stretched.

A beautifully woven Scottish fantasy that is handled with gravitas and care. The relationships are loving and strained by real heavy secrets, not shallow insecurities and miscommunications. The love isn't cheesy nor solely about lust, nor does it feel separate from the storyline. The magic is integral and practical as well, instead of a weapon or a way to get out of difficult situations. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to read the sequel!

It’s a good beginner fantasy read. I liked some of the character development and I’ll be interested to see what they do in the next book.
