The Dark Mirror snared my heart from Chapter One. I love everything about this book, the story, their religion, Broichan's pig headedness, Uist's unflappable charm, Faolan's sexy aloofness, Tuala's creepy hair-braid-chain; everything its not really creepy. Juliet Marillier has this power to draw me into her stories, well past the time any sane person would spend glued in one spot.
Many chores and errands were neglected, or put off while reading this book. It wasn't my fault.

Anyway, I'm extremely excited to start on Blade of Fortriu. Trying to wait a week or so before cracking it's spine. I'm attempting to pace myself and savor the Bridei Chronicles. I rampaged through The Sevenwaters series in one month. There was this hungry feeling for all things celtic, a strange glint in my eye, and I spent the entire month contemplating naming my first child Sorcha or Finbar.
Those were good times, and were over all too quickly. Cheers to the Dark Mirror! Thank you, Juliet, for another beautiful tale. One person found this helpful.
What a beautiful work of historical fantasy! Set in the Pictish kingdom of Fortrui in the 6th century, we are plunged into a fascinating world of druids and kings, and old conflicts between the Gaels and the Pritani, the ancient gods and the new Christian one. Marillier is a master storyteller. Her characters are timeless, each precisely themselves though perhaps they may remind us in their gravity and strength of their companions in Marillier's other works. So many characters are given a journey and a path to walk, instead of being flat background characters. Marillier writes lovingly about medieval and ancient times, allowing the brutal and dangerous nature of our ancestor's lives to show through without subjecting the reader to gratuitous violence.
You will cheer for Bridei and Tuala, and love and hate Broichan.
The Dark Mirror (Bridei Chronicles, book 1) by Juliet Marillier
Marillier is a 5 star writer, but this particular effort really should get 4. Tuala is disappointingly wrapped up in her love interest for a Marillier heroine, and Bridei is somewhat annoyingly perfect. However, the political world they live in is too fascinating for me to pass up, and Ana and Faolan are much more satisfying characters, so I have high hopes for book 2!
It isn't until p my paperback version p. Something that makes the story have any reason or make sense.
