Review of 'Daggerspell (Deverry Series, Book One)' on 'Goodreads'

It took just about one week for me to read this book, which is a short time for a quite long book.

I enjoyed this story. The dating is a little odd to me. 400 years may have passed, but it seemed like all the past lives that were brought up were very early on. I think they either should have been more spread out or more past life stories should have been included. I find it a little sad that because of Nevyn's vow, he will never be romantically involved with the woman he loved and vowed to help her find her Wyrd.

I did find some aspects of this Wyrd stuff confusing: such as while Rhodry has Blaen's Wyrd where the Brangwen/Gerrowen/Blaen issue is concerned, he also seems to have another Wyrd not associated at all with Blaen.

I am moving right along onto the next book, Darkspell.
