THE LADY OF THE SORROWS The Bitterbynde Trilogy #2 This special, revised edition includes the author's new introduction - in which she discusses the writing of the Bitterbynde trilogy - images of part of the original, handwritten manuscript and copies of some original notes and calculations created while the work was in progress. "Though Imhrien's memory is clouded by sorcery, she must take vital news to the King-Emperor of Caermelor. She hopes that there she may also find Thorn, the King's Ranger, a beautiful warrior who has won her heart. Since no commoner may approach the royal court, Imrhien assumes a new identity as Rohain, a noble visitor from the distant Sorrow Isles. She soon discovers that the King and his rangers have departed to battle the unseelie hordes which have declared war against mortalkind. Attacks by nightmare monsters of the Wild Hunt, led by wicked Lord Huon, grow ever more frequent and brutal. And when evil forces lay siege to the royal sanctuary on a hidden mystic island, Rohain is confronted with a horrifying discovery. To protect those she loves, the Lady of the Sorrows must undertake a desperate quest to discover who she is and why an unhuman evil would wreak such destruction. But the truth of Rohain's past will prove more incredible - and far more tragic - than any she could possibly have imagined." Author Cecilia Dart-Thornton was discovered on the Internet. She had written the three books of the Bitterbynde Trilogy before she uploaded the first chapter to a Writers' Workshop, where her work was spotted by an editor. Shortly afterwards Time-Warner's publishing department (New York) offered her a contract. They published her books in hardcover, the first time they had ever done so with a new author. The Bitterbynde Trilogy hit the best-seller lists world-wide and has been translated into five languages.… (mere)

Ancor meglio del primo libro. Un fantasy che sembra un lunghissima fiaba. ( )

I love the use of old fairy tales and the descriptive language of the story. I did have to pull out the dictionary a few times though. ( )

The second book of the Bitterbynde trilogy. Lots and lots more tromping around, romance, assumed identities, being chased by dangerous and mystical enemies, adventuring around - plus in addition, the tribulations of court society and even more romance...
And I'm not kidding when I say "lots" - it's nearly 600 pages, and I have to admit, although it was good, I was getting a little bit tired of it by the end... I'm currently reading the last book of the trilogy, but not all that fast....

Il secondo capitolo della trilogia di bytterbinde (letteralmente un voto vincolante) si apre laddove La ragazza della torre termina. Imhrien ha riacquistato voce e volto e ora deve compiere la sua missione presso la corte del Re-Imperatore di Erith. Assume quindi la fittizia identità di Rohain delle Isole Sorrows e come nel precedente capitolo da qui si snoda una fitta trama di avventure che porteranno la giovane a scoprire la sua vera identità.
La dama delle isole è un romanzo più scorrevole del precedente e meno farraginoso, seppure lo stile della Thornton non si smentisce con le sue minuziose (a volte manieristiche) descrizioni.
Tutta la potenza narrativa dell'autrice però si rivela negli ultimi capitoli, quando diventa evidente che la rievocazione delle mitologia e del folklore non è ridotta solo a qualche sporadico racconto orale e ballata, ma caratterizza fortemente l'etnografia di Erith.
Per questo arrivati alla rivisitazione del mito del Pifferaio Magico di Hamelin adattato al mondo della Thornton, assumendo un ruolo centrale nella vicenda di Imhrien, si capisce che il lavoro condotto dall'autrice è veramente colto e minuzioso. Ovviamente la vicenda non si conclude, giacché la trilogia è un corpo unico. ( )
