4.0 out of 5 stars
Simple yet Effective........, June 2, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Blood Summer (Hardcover)
This is probably one of the fantasy writer's first book , being written in 1976 and is a simple yarn dwelling on the story of Marion and her companion Roland who whilst holidaying in Cornwall meet the mysterious and reclusive character of Keith Sharwood. Marion becomes emotionally involved with Keith and throughout the story a macabre chain of events unfolds.....!
Love,murder and a nice splash of horror this little book is a gem .... well I thought so.
The beginning of Cooper's fascination with tall, gaunt and brooding men is evident in the romanticised depiction of the aesthetic-vampirical Keith , similarities to Tarod (yum) unavoidable . Good little pre-cursor to her later Time Master Trilogy Books.
