5.0 von 5 Sternen Read this book! 13. April 1999
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
I first read The Hounds Of The Morrigan in elementary school. Recently while at the library, it caught my eye again, almost like Pidge in the story. This is a wonderful novel - the characters are as alive as any people I've met, the setting is amazing, and, especially for a childrens book, the plots and subplots are intricate and complex. But fascinating - it's almost hypnotic - this is the only book I have ever seriously not been physically able to put down while reading it. Anybody looking for (I mean anybody, from 10 to much older) a really good fantasy and the quest you wished for devoutly as a child, a crash course in Irish mythology, and the kind of book will probably never come along again - read this book. It's well worth it. I wish Pat O'Shea would write another book like this - perhaps someday she will. Until then, read this one and hope. Come on, Pidge and Briget are waiting!

5.0 von 5 Sternen I've finally found a book I can call a true Masterpiece. 20. September 1998
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
This book became one of my ten "comfort books"...the ones I look for in hardcover, so they don't break or rip every time I move. They're the ones that follow me everywhere I go. "Hounds" was enchanting the first time I read it, and was just as wonderful the 40th (really!) time. I credit this book with sparking my interest in things Celtic. I would love to read anything else by Pat O'Shea, but this seems to be her tour-de-force...she has a small children's book out. It, too, is lovely, but it's nothing like this!

For the English Majors out there...even more so than the main characters, watch the bit parts. Every chapter is filled with people and animals who have their own purposes in the story, and each one is developed to the point that you just KNOW they have lives outside the bounds of their small, sometimes one-line parts...Highly recommended.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I picked up this book, but it was extremely entertaining! I was completely taken into this exciting adventure of two irish children. THe villains are deliciously evil, the characters have wonderful personalities, and the author's descriptions transport you right into the middle of the action. I loved it! Don't let the length scare you away; you'll wish it was longer when you reach the end.
