Deverry Series

A series retells over and over the tale of two lovers (and the characters important to them) who meet and fall in love again and again over the course of centuries. It’s a lover’s tale that’s bound to the concept of reincarnation, fate, destiny and unfinished business. It’s an interesting concept, and Kerr really makes the whole thing work again and again over the course of the series. And while you are reading about the same “souls” in every book, the general stories are different.The language is quite poetic – descriptive and distinctly Celtic – and the characters are all so well done. If you like well done romantic fantasy, this is a series you’ll enjoy. Much recommended if you enjoy books by Kate Elliott and Marion Zimmer Bradley as some of their books have a somewhat similar feel in tone, setting, and content. If you are looking for raw action, gray characters, and epic world shaking events, this series is not for you. But if you want a sweetly romantic series, read it.A series retells over and over the tale of two lovers (and the characters important to them) who meet and fall in love again and again over the course of centuries.
