The Last Light of the Sun | Guy Gavriel Kay
post image

I only remembered three things about THE LAST LIGHT OF THE SUN:

1. There were vikings.
2. They blood eagled people.
3. I didn‘t enjoy it as much as Kay‘s other books.

Now I‘m rereading it for the first time, eighteen years on, and I‘m loving it. Kay hits me hardest when he‘s PERSONAL, above mythic or political, and this book is very much that. I can‘t wait to plunge onwards.

Also of note: it‘s Allie‘s 8th birthday! She loves it under her tree.
