Sorcha, seventh child of a seventh son, finds herself caught up in the manipulations of a wicked and sorcerous stepmother, the whims of faerie and the purely human evil of a fanatical British lord. Acts of kindness have the most terrible of consequences and people's strongest virtues are used against them. First volume of a trilogy, Daughter of the Forest is a stunning debut that takes one of the most moving of fairy stories and renders it in vivid painful detail--rarely have the day-to-day consequences of magic's demands been made so directly unpleasant. Sorcha is a figure of fortitude to stand with the great heroines of contemporary fantasy; she does what she has to and takes the consequences at every turn. The author creates a cast of worthy allies and enemies for Sorcha as she travels from a remote Irish fortress to the depths of a forest in a Britain caught between its Celtic and European identities. --Roz Kaveney]]> 1999 5 1 false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Fri Jan 25 08:02:12 -0800 2008 Tue Jan 29 11:15:58 -0800 2008 more...]]> 37307295 1051989 876013 0006483984 9780006483984 8 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/876013.Daughter_of_the_Forest 4.32 2763 Daughter of the Forest takes the reader to an Ireland on the edge where history and fairy tale meet.
