Sevenwaters Trilogy by Juliet Marillier

[April]

This thread is for discussing the Sevenwaters trilogy by Juliet Marillier:
Daughter of the Forest
The Sevenwaters Trilogy, Book 2 Son of the Shadows
The Sevenwaters Trilogy, Book 3 Child of the Prophecy

I loved the fairy-tale retelling of the first book and her descriptions of the Celts.

What does everyone else think of these books?

I read these when I was a YA. I feel like these books are aimed at teenage girls who want good fantasy, so that's why personally I would consider them YA, because of the target audience.

Maybe they are more crossover...

They're in the adult section of my library, and sold in the adult section of bookstores, but I read them when I was 15 or so, loved them, and the main characters in each book are around 14-17 years old...so I too would consider them a crossover, and libraries and bookstores should cotton on to that fact!
Marillier incorporates great romances into her novels, I have to say.

[Allison]

I agree...crossover, since they're in the adult section.

I recently read DotF, plan on reading the rest at some point.
