eososray 's review for:
The Crystal Cave
by Mary Stewart
I started this book with the assumption that I wouldn't finish it. I had thought that I had read enough books on Merlin and Arthur. But instead of the usual story starting with Arthur's birth, this one starts with Merlin's and takes us through his childhood, with it's troubles and traumas, his youth, filled with learning, and ends just about where most Merlin stories start. Thank goodness there's a sequel.
It was well written and an involving read. I admit to not really caring about any of the charaters besides Merlin, the relatively one dimensional women were not worth caring about and no one else gets developed enough to gain an interest. Merlin and his story were enough to keep me reading.
