A review by unevendays
Avilion by Robert Holdstock
4.0
Finally, after twenty-five years, Robert Holdstock has written a sequel to Mythago Wood. It follows the children of Steve Huxley and the mythago Guiwenneth: half human and half woodland, two very different children torn between their dual heritage.
This is most definitely a successor to the Mythago series; it's very different to the more formal tone of the Merlin Codex books and goes back to the archetype and story orientated world of Ryhope Wood. While it obviously isn't as inventive and original as Mythago Wood, it's still a very enjoyable read and far superior of most books I've read recently!
