This is a series that I have fallen head over heels into and do not think that I will emerge any time soon.
the inciting incident is grisly and I would recommend to check for trigger warnings as sensitive have quite a bit changed since this book was written in the 1980ies.
However, I loved the exploration of love and life and fate that made its way then through this first book.
The world is beautifully and skilfully crafted, including language and the details.
What I specifically loved was this story line that started to emerge by some of the characters having the second sight and the wild folk being involved in the tale.
