The best parts of this book were the baby changeling and the fact that there is a canonically gay character in the Sevenwaters series now.
The only scenes where I had any reaction to this book involved the changeling because those were sort of dark and the baby made of sticks and leaves created a really creepy image in my mind. I liked that.

Unfortunately, everything else about this book bored me. Clodagh was ok, but I didn't care for Cathal and the romance. We are also back to having a 16 year old girl involved romantically with a man in his 20s in this book, which I was never a fan of. Of course we also had to mention how special Liadan is even though she isn't really in this book. When does that character die so I can be free of this?

This wasn't as bad as "Son of the Shadows", but it was close. Every time Marillier focuses too much on the differences she perceives there are between the sexes she loses me. Every time there is a lot of focus on women just being useful to have children she loses me.

The book would have also been improved if it had been shorter because it was too repetitive. I don't need to read the same thing 3 times just because once it was in someone's head, then spoken aloud and then told to another character that wasn't present to hear it the first time. Maybe if it was a sentence, but not pages of it. Unnecessary.

I really don't know if I should read the other 2 books in the series or even more Marillier books, besides the ones I already read. I keep hoping that the newest books are better so I will at least give them a try. At least to the first books in the newer trilogies. It's a pity because I really like the writing style. However, the plot and characters almost always overstay their welcome. ( )

4.5 stars.
Like the three previous books of Juliet Marrilier's that I have read, I liked this one a whole lot. I don't know how she manages to make her stories so enticing, her characters so real and likeable, her plots crafted so masterfully that you find yourself following it like a dream woven of magic threads. I am head over heels in love with this series. ( )

Mit diesem Buch beginnt ein neuer Zyklus, nachdem Lady Oonagh im letzten Band getötet wurde. Nun ist der Feind Mac Dara, ein Herrscher der Elfen. Er entführt Clodaghs Bruder und lockt sie so in die Anderwelt. Wieder hat das Buch eine schöne Liebesgeschichte und ist auch sonst eine gute Sevenwaters-Geschichte. Dennoch, so gut wie die ersten Bücher ist dieses nicht mehr.
Das Hörbuch ist allerdings wieder wunderbar gelesen von Tanja Gecke. Schade, dass der Rest nicht mehr ins Deutsche übersetzt wurde- so kann es natürlich auch kein Hörbuch mehr geben. ( )

This book is a welcome return to the classical quest format of the first in the series, and is much stronger than the less structured second and third installments. I enjoyed getting more insight into the Otherworld and its inhabitants, and the main characters were easy to root for. Not the Best Book I Ever Read, but I have no distinct complaints, so it manages four stars.

This concludes my reread of the series; now, on to my first read of the fifth book! ( )

A fantasy, about a young woman from a family living near an enchanted forest (basically), who has to go on a quest into fairyland to save her baby brother. He has been taken by fairies and a bundle of sticks left behind -a changeling, whom only she sees as a living creature, and a needy one at that. I liked the twist on the changeling myth, that despite her brother's loss, she nurtures the little changeling creature who would otherwise die. The quest romantic elements solid writing make for a pretty good story from this veteran fantasy author. I can see that the author is building on a world from previous novels, but it doesn't impinge on this one if you haven't read the others. Would appeal to young adults too. ( )

"Juliet Marillier has once again given us an epic tale...sure to delight fans."
ajouté par Awesomeness1 | modifierThe Specusphere
 
"What makes the Sevenwaters series particularly special is the setting. Marillier is obviously well versed in Celtic myth and she brings a vivid feel of a land steeped in old-world myth... The writing is beautiful ly done, with a lyrical feel... a great addition to the series... I have no doubt that HEIR TO SEVENWATERS will be treasured by everyone who has ever fallen in love with Sevenwaters... a very sweet book."

"Marillier's lushly descriptive writing brings to life a shadowy and perilous Fair Folk... I enjoyed this book so much... and sincerely hope that this series will not end with HEIR TO SEVENWATERS."

"This is a beautiful tale of family, courage, and - most importantly of all- love. I finished this book and was urged to skip back to the beginning just to read it again. I can only hope that Marillier plans on revisiting Sevenwaters again. And hopefully very, very soon. Juliet Marillier's prose is beautiful, as lush and enchanting as the forest of Sevenwaters itself. HEIR TO SEVENWATERS reminded me what it feels like to be truly moved by a story, and why I fell in love with reading in the first place ... one of the finest books I have had the pleasure to read this year."
ajouté par Awesomeness1 | modifierThe Book Smugglers
 
"A strong entry in a magnificent saga. Juliet Marillier once again shows her skill in writing an exciting thriller that enables readers to believe in the Tuatha De Danann."

My fingers numb with cold, I fastened a length of gold-embroidered ribbon around the hawthorn and murmured a prayer to whatever spirits might be listening.
