Review title: A re-working of a first novel, and it really works; a darn good fantasy story
Product review: This edition of Masques includes an introduction by the author, and it's worth listening to. We get the story of the story, then the story itself. The story itself promises to be a good old traditional fantasy story, but the plot goes places I hadn't anticipated, but places where, on reading, it feels right that it should go. The characters are strong, likeable, and human. The magic is consistent with itself; it's an interesting system. There is something especially appealing about the closeness that our heroes have with nature and with the animal world. Old Wolf is about as far from a classic werewolf as I can imagine.I'll be listening to this again, and probably again and again, from time to time. There's something satisfying about a well-crafted fairy tale, and this is one.
