Narration Toward Books The Iron Tree (The Crowthistle Chronicles #1)

Jarred is a young boy who has grown up among his mother's peaceful desert people. While Jarred loves his mother, he longs to know the history of his father, a journeyman who left years earlier, promising to return for his wife and infant son. A broken promise but a token left behind--an amulet for Jarred that he has worn always. Some say it brings more than a bit of good luck his way, for no harm has ever befallen the boy.

When Jarred comes to manhood, he decides to journey into the world to seek his fortune and perhaps along the way find news of his father. In his travels he will come to a place so unlike his own as to boggle his mind--a place of immense tracts of waterways and marshes, where the very air seems to teem with magic and a people surrounded by creatures fey and not, with enough strange customs and superstitions to make his head swirl.

And to the beautiful Lilith, a woman who will haunt his dreams and ultimately steal his heart...who perhaps can provide a key to his heritage.

Write-Up Epithetical Books The Iron Tree (The Crowthistle Chronicles #1)

Another one of those series that I just can't put down....each book has left me wanting a little more....this series has to be in my top ten

2.5 stars Way too much detail and descriptions for me. Took to long to get anywhere.

*winces* If I didn't know better, I would swear this was her first novel. The Ill-Made Mute was utterly awesome, but this... Well, I wouldn't exactly call it a fantasy. A romance in a fantasy setting would be more accurate. And maybe it's just because I don't care for romances, but the entire story I was waiting to find out what the point was. It never got there. They lived, their lives were full of random ups and downs, and then they died. Whoopie. Not to mention the dialogue. Oh, the dialogue.

Slow, slow, slow! Another book by Dart-Thornton with a good story idea that is absolutely smothered by her horrible writing style. There were a few moments where I genuinely felt moved but these were few and far between. After reading the second book in this series I gave up, something I have only done with 1 other series of books.

I couldn't put these books down. I loved it from the first few chapters. It's a very detailed and intricate story with lots of twists and turns in the plot. I totally didn't expect the ending and didn't want it to end when it did. I fell in love with the last book and I loved the world that Cecilia Dart-Thornton created to set these stories in. Different from anything I've written before and I loved them as much as I loved the Farseer trilogy and Liveship traders (my fav books)

I like the concept of the series; Following a series of generations. However, this book moved quite slowly. The language while trying to maintain an old style was often overly flowery. It set under the rest of the story well but may have served better as a shorter prologue rather than a story if its own.
