This review is from: Raven's Gathering: Bard IV (Paperback)

Young Felimid was cast out for a year in the effort of erasing a blood-feud. The one year stretched into many, as the world jumped up at the bard and never let him go. After becoming the lover of a pirate queen, Felimid postponed his return home for her sake. But the promise to join him on his way home could never be fulfilled, as her enemies gathered forces and laid siege to the pirates' stronghold. When, conquered and shamed, Gudrun dies, Felimid expects to die too - for he was the one that stood by her to the bitter end.
To him, the silver-tongued bard, fate must show a crueler face: he's to live only if he can charm the raising waves of the coming tide with his song... But Gudrun bade him live to sing of her, and this promise he'll try with everything he has, to fulfill.
A nice, sad, romantic fantasy. Recommended for those who appreciate Irish fantasy.

This is hands-down one of the greatest works of "fantasy fiction." The story is believable and well written; and the action moves along briskly. You will learn some actual European history. I was ignorant of many of the peoples in the book, and this caused me to do some real-world research.
Keith Taylor knows his stuff!

The ending will move you. This is a great book!
