You get from this novel what you bring to it. Give it your time, your close attention, an imagination filled with folklore and a mind open to magic and you will have sight of something special. I know I will be drawn back to this time and time again as I search for the beginnings and ends of the threads Alan chose to weave this tale with. It is luminous and shines with glamour.
