This novel is how I met David, some years ago, when he asked me to critique it. I’m a blunt, detailed critiquer, and I’ll admit that I was a little worried over the reception of my feedback, worried enough that I sent him the first chapter to make sure he knew what he was getting into. Not only did David thank me, but he asked me to give him the full treatment.

An amazing story spanning over more than 100 years. Wonderfully interwoven plot flitting between past and present. Strong characters that come to life on the page. Romantic, powerful, otherworldly. And just when you think it's over, there's a little twist at the end.
Loved Kate as a character and found myself spurring her on during developments in the story.

I loved this book. The characters were strong, the story gripped me and the relationships and events were so beautifully woven. To cap it all, it has one of the most stunning endings I have read in a very long time (no spoilers here!). David has created a thoroughly enjoyable read here and I am looking forward to the next one
Normally I'm not a big fan of books that go back and forth through time, but Bridger does an amazing job of it, especially the way he blends the generation switches with the magic of the book. A great fantasy-romance and definitely worth the read.
What stood out for me in this book, apart from the very intricate plot was the romance between Peter and Catherine. It was beautiful, and I found myself swept up in it completely.
I'm a fan of David's work anyway but The Weaverfields Heir has, in my opinion, taken his writing to the next level. Conflict galore, moments of real emotion and characters that make you think.
Is it wrong of me to say I liked the baddie? :-)
Well done David, I await the next.

Unusual, intriguing family saga.
