The Bristling Wood by Katherine Kerr

This book follows up Daggerspell and Darkspell.   I can’t link to the reviews since I read the books some time in my distant past.   This book makes some assumptions that you have a recollection of the previous books.   I don’t.   However, I still enjoyed the book.   The are a wealth of characters and some confusion comes from the number of them.   The kingdom of Deverry is the location and the war between light and dark is the theme.

Jill is one of my favorite characters and her resiliency in bouncing back from adversity.   There is, of course, a senior wizard, Nevyn or in the case of Kerr, a well-versed practitioner of Dweomer, her version of magic.

There is good action and a somewhat confusing plot.

I recommend the book and will be starting the next title immediately.
