Title: The Magic Was Lost
Review: As a fan of Ly de Angeles non fictional work I was delighted to learn of her new book, The Quickening. I couldn't have been more disappointed.I found the plot of this book to be almost incoherent with mini stories loosely tied together in what amounted to tedious chaos. The ill developed characters were equally overly heroic or overly villainous, all sporting chips on their shoulders the size of Texas. It is clear that Ly de Angeles was attempting to bring the Sidhe, the Tuatha de Danann into every day life for us, and that is commendable, but all she achieved was to make them look common and washed out. The magic was lost.Ly de Angeles is capable of far more. Some of her work is visionary & extraordinary but this is not one of them.
