I have made it no real secret that I have a long standing and complicated love-hate relationship with Fantasy novels. So it was with some trepidation, I started The Gift or The Naming as the copy I read was titled by Alison Croggon. My main problem with fantasy is Faeries, or The Fey, The People, whatever you want to call them. I'm annoyed by them, light, dark I find them all to be annoying.

Imagine how pleased I was to find a fantasy novel with only the slightest hint of the Faeries. Now I am positive that if I was to continue with this series, it would become just lousy with fairies, that is just how fantasy novels work, but for this one at least, very little fairies, Yeah!

That alone deserves,

3 of 5 stars.
