5.0 out of 5 stars Poignant and Distressing, Sep 1 2001
By "alamedachicken" (San Leandro, CA USA) - See all my reviews
I would recommend this book; I have never forgetten it, but I will never read it again, it is so sad. It is well written, like all of her books: I would say it is about reality and fantasy, and reality loses. My favorite book of Lindholm's is Wizard of the Pigeons. Thank you Amazon: I didn't know she was Robin Hobb and learned it from a review. The reviews on Amazon are a delight. Love.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, magical, poignant., Dec 8 1997
By A Customer
Megan Lindholm writes a moving story about a misfit, a woman who feels more comfortable in the wilderness of the cold north than with other humans, who loses her son in a tragic accident and her husband in its destructive wake, and who retreats to the forest with a childhood friend -- a faun.

If you like "crossover fantasy" where the present day reality mixes seamlessly with other realms, you'll enjoy this and her earlier book "Wizard of the Pigeons." Also highly recommended is her Farseer series (beginning with "Assassin's Apprentice"), under the pen name of Robin Hobb.

1.0 out of 5 stars Where's the happy ending?, Dec 10 2000
By A Customer
All right, all romances don't have to have happy endings. But 'Cloven Hooves' goes beyond 'not happy' into 'downright miserable'. Everything goes wrong with the main character: she doesn't fit in as a child; when she finally grows up and has a family of her own, her inlaws despise her, and her son is killed in a farm accident. And despite what looks like a happy occurrence -- her childhood friend, a faun/satyr, comes back into her life -- that's doomed to misery as well.

I simply can't recommend this book, unless a reader likes to see a character always unhappy.
