sarahsulliv 's review for:
Daughter of the Forest
by Juliet Marillier
Because it came highly recommended on The Book Smugglers & some other blogs I tried this one, even though it's more genre-specific fantasy than I usually read. It took me awhile to get into it, but I found the story (a retelling of the swan brothers fairy tale) compelling. I did like the characters, but the implications of the story, largely from the source material left me with some feminist qualms. I'm interested though, in reading another in this series to see if it changes as she moves away from the direct retelling.
