A Árvore do Verão by Guy Gavriel Kay, Elsa T.S. Vieira
5.0

This is a book that i read a couple of years back, and one, that i used to re-read - before this phase of books overdose "thing" that i've entered, in which i only have time to read new stories. Well almost _ from time to time.
This story, the ambience and the characters were so magnificient, that up into this day, i still haven't forgoten them.

I've never been a sci-fi fan so - and i hope that this profanity is forgiven _ for me, this story, is more on the epic fantasy category, than scy-fy. YEs, there is a jump through time! Yes there is! But that's it!

All of a sudden we have a group of persons, who find themselves living in a far away kingdom, in which every single one of them, will have a role to play in the kingdom's fate.
This is a book filled with interesting characters, with plenty of quests to fulfill, lovers whose fates are bound to the threads of time, sacrifices, losses....this is not a very HEA trilogy. But i truly like it just the same.

I love this book. As well as i did the other two. But this one presented a universe that will forever live in my mind. And for that, it will always be the number one in my head.
