Key of Light by Nora Roberts
5.0
*****4.5*****
I loved this. The overall story and world weaved together so beautifully, with magical layers threaded into real life in a lovely way. I can see this being a book (and series, likely) that I read over and over again.
If it had a flaw, it's that - because this is the first book of the trilogy - a lot of time was spent setting up the characters. And so, a lot of time was spent on characters other than the primary couple of this book, Flynn and Malory. Now, I loved the two of them. But they felt a little under-served by this book... with Dana and Zoe often stealing the spotlight. Which on the one hand means I can't wait to get to Dana and Zoe's books... but on the other, means I loved Malory and Flynn less than I should, because I'd say my attention was off them for about 1/3 of the book.
But all in all, I just loved it, and am so thrilled to read the next in the series.
