Midwinterblood

Product Information

He is discovered by a farmer named Erik, who cares for him, but dislikes having a soldier around—war just leaves a bad taste in Erik's mouth. My favorite ones are "The Painter"(1902), "The Unquiet Grave" (1848), and "The Vampire" (10th Century), many of which are violent, pensive, and sad. Recommended for: fans of Monstrous Beauty, When the Sea is Rising Red, and other dark literary YA, and for adults who may want to try out some quality young adult fiction.

My absolute favourite was the aforementioned Ghost story because of not only the story itself but because the author managed to include a story-within-a-story-within-a-story with a twist. Their love is strong, however, and through seven lifetimes and seven incarnations they seek to find each other, to reunite in a loving embrace. I started this book without much knowledge what it is all about and I'm glad for it since I had really appreciated the book's beauty and brilliance. Thing is, he has a way to deliver words that make you get instantly hooked in the story and the labyrinth that's beneath it (because they can get hard to understand sometimes, or they can play with your mind), and I'm not saying this lightly.My first reaction was to think of CLOUD ATLAS, but the more I read this story, the more I found myself racing through the pages, I began to realize it was something else entirely. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

He has illustrated some of his books, and has provided wood-engravings for a couple of private press books. I have a habit of reading weird stories and I appreciate them, so if you want a different kind of story that doesn't have any cliche on it, then go please check out Midwinterblood. Then, there is the fact that this is a love story that acknowledges many different types of love and this is what moved the book from simply good to awesome for me. Been somewhere that has felt totally familiar even though you’ve never been there before, or felt that you’ve known someone even though you are meeting them for the first time?The love story between Eric/Merle should have been epic considering it started centuries ago and they promised to be together in each of their next six lives because they just loved each other that much. It is this twist that made the novel so much more poignant for me as a reader – because doomed love over the ages is a familiar enough theme.
