Book Reviews of The Forest House (Avalon, Book 2)Book Review: Not a smooth flow Summary: 3 Stars
I enjoy reading books of this time period. I found this book a little uneven. It was not a smooth flow. The book is very heavy and I believe an elderly person like myself would have a hard time holding this book.
Book Review: Waste of time. Summary: 1 Stars
I was SOOOO angry at how Bradley/Paxton, or WHOEVER took the beauty and magic of Mists, and twisted it into a series of commericial and financial attempts at success.
I didn't even bother finishg it. I don't think I got through the first chapter.
I found myself thinking, "who ARE these people???" who were not related to any of the characters in Mists at all, although I have read here that "Lady of Avalon" is the infamous story of how the mists were brought down, and the story of Vivienne, and her beginnings. I have yet to read any of them. I simply refuse. I will not pay one penny to anyone who is involved in the shredding of the wonderful, magical story of "Mists of Avalon".
Plus, finding out the Ms. Bradley has been long dead, and all these others in her name have been written by some Paxton woman, who if you read the other critical reviews, is very telling of the other prequels.
If you really are a fan of Bradley's, you will keep your money in your wallet. Just as Anne Rice lost me after the 4th Vamire Chronicles, and now "writes only for the Lord" (rolls eyes), I have lost my faith in so many authors that I swore by 20 years ago...
