Bravi, bravi, bravissimi, Jan 21 1998
By idraija@hotmail.com - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Castle of the Silver Wheel (Paperback)
Teresa Edgerton is one of those rare fantasy authors who can delve into an entire world and make it her own; who lends respect to the genre. Unfortunately, due to the quality of her work, she has largely passed unnoticed and is quickly out of print (which is why I had to steal two of her books out of the library. Don't worry, I did pay for them--eventually). She worldbuilds with ease, creates believable characters, and leaves the reader desiring more. Best of all, her books are re-readable. One grips the covers as if this time the heroine won't make it through. Don't miss any of her books--even if you have to beg, borrow, steal or cajole! For those who may have never read any of her series: two trilogies are set in Celydonn, one conceivably leading to the other (Green Lion Trilogy to this one beginning with the Castle of the Silver Wheel). The other is a duology set in 18th-19th century prose, quite humorous, but very different from the Celydonn trilogies in style. It is helpful if one is familiar with the literary history of that period. Unfortunately, she hurries the pace of the action through in the duology, and does not linger over character and world building as much as some hopeless romantics (myself included) might like. Final analysis: Ms. Edgerton, thank you. --Emily C. A. Snyder

this Ain't like the Green Lion Trilogy, April 28 2003
By T. D. Bell "tink" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Castle of the Silver Wheel (Paperback)
I must say that I was terribly disappointed by this incredibly disjointed, ill-told story. After Teleri and Ceilyn (from the Green Lion Trilogy), I thought Gwenlliant's story would be amazing. There is no wonder in this book. Just a lot of angst. Very, very disappointing.

Compelling and engrossing, Oct 15 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Castle of the Silver Wheel (Paperback)
To those who like some romance in their fantasy novels, Teresa Edgerton weaves tales that reach out to those of us who were not precocious by instinct. Anyone who has a natural sense of modesty will empathize with her heroines. Unfortunately, Edgerton's books are few and far between. I have not seen a new one for several years and have given up looking for them.
