robynldouglas 's review for:
The Summer Tree
by Guy Gavriel Kay
This is the kind of high fantasy that I can easily see re-reading, and rather wish I had come to earlier in life. (It's definitely not a kid's book, but I'd almost rather my fictional progeny read this than Narnia.) Kay takes touchstones from mythology and weaves them together in a haunting opener to this trilogy about the first world and the impact five people from our own world have on it, in the midst of an epic struggle between good and evil.
It's not without it's issues, but they're easily overlooked in favour of just how darn enticing this story is. I can't wait to read the next ones.
