#7 The Dark Mirror by Juliet Marillier

My Rating: 9 out of 10 stars
An excellent read! I was a bit daunted at first, picking up a 720 page book by an author I’d never read before… I mean, if I want to check out a new (to me) author, I’d usually start off with something smaller. But this book did not disappoint. And I hear Marillier’s Sevenwaters Trilogy is even better? Wow! I’m going to have to add all those to my wish list now too. :)

The relationship between Bridei and Tuala was bittersweet. I was hoping that Marillier wouldn’t leave us hanging with regards to this, waiting for the next book, and fortunately she didn’t. However, that’s not to say that both Bridei and Tuala don’t have their work cut out for them going forward. I’m already eagerly anticipating the next book in this series, Blade of Fortriu, which themarina has already offered up as another ring. You rock chickie!! :D
