Loved this book.I have a degree in ancient languages so I have a genuine perspective in which to review the language in this book. In defence of the author, I did notice that she mentioned she was only touching on old english and is a mixture of crossover dialects from old to modern. She did not boost that it is totally old english. The author clearly does have a grasp on old english which I have also read in her other book.

Aside of that, I totally enjoyed this book. Lots of lovely poems to fuel your imagination. You will clearly have some favourites as I do.
Going to read her novel next. This author is one to watch.

There were a couple good poems in here, but as a reader of many things, I found this collection of poetry a little disappointing. And the description boasts "olde English," which as a graduated student of language, I found to be lacking. The author clearly doesn't know what Old English is, for there is a dab of Early Modern English, but definitely not a single bit of the Old (which without proper study, today's English speakers would not have a chance of understanding/reading).

Being not a big fan of poetry i don't usually read such stuff, but this book is really not what i would expect of a poetry book, there's so many emotions inside this book and so many dark memories that you can at some point relate with the loss of a loved one, real poetry i would call this book.

Would recommend this to other readers of poetry and literature. Being in my late 60s Ive read many poems through out my entire life, the poems in this book are beautiful.
Please write and publish more. Robert Evans.
