Was just wondering if anyone else had heard of/read The Sevenwaters Trilogy by Juliet Marillier and what they thought of it. I LOVED this trilogy. Gooooooood Irish fantasy, based on a folktale about seven brothers who are turned in to swans (I think it's seven...I know that the main character in the book is the sister of the brothers who are turned in to swans, but I don't remember how many there are in total, including her).
The first book is Daughter of the Forest, the second is Son of the Shadows, and the third is Child of the Prophecy. I think I would have to say that the first is my absolute favorite because it has the most mention of my two favorite characters, Sorcha (the narrator) and her brother Finbar, with the second book as a close tie.
Apparently- and this is according to a message board linked on Juliet's website, where she is/was apparently a member- someone is attempting to make a film based off of these books but they don't have the funds at the moment to do so.
Someone at the LJ community for Sevenwaters made a post saying that Juliet is coming out with a FOURTH Sevenwaters book, which is SO exciting. I can't wait to read it.
Any way, if you have heard of it and have read it, what'd you think? If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys fantasy/Irish fantasy. ^____^
