Saint-Saveur Cathedral of Aix-en-Provence is an ancient structure of many secrets-a perfect monument to fill the lens of a celebrated photographer, and a perfect place for the photographer's son, Ned Marriner, to lose himself while his father works.

I really liked this book! The writing was engaging and the plot was interesting, though it was a bit slow to start... My main complaint regarding the book were the holes in the backstory, plus the hint that perhaps Ned's story was not the most interesting one to be told... Still, it was a solid modern fantasy and quite an original story.

Elizabeth B. (Cattriona) - Prairie Vlg, KS reviewed Ysabel on 12/8/2010 + 161 more book reviews

A very elegant and engaging fantasy novel, intertwined with the French countryside, a bit of art, mythology and ancient history. Characters that were familiar from Kay's Fionavar Trilogy make appearances here, now older and wiser, but you need not have read the Trilogy to enjoy this book. The story is rich and well-written and the conclusion will keep you in suspense until the very end. Very highly recommended.
