BL: Raven's Shadow (Briggs, Patricia)
Patricia Briggs, Raven's Shadow
Ace (2004) ISBN: 0-441-01187-X
Score: 2
First half of the Raven high fantasy duology. Fairly standard story about persecuted gypsy-types who use their magic to protect people who hate them from evil monsters most don't believe in any more; though this book is mostly about people (including Travelers) doing bad things, saving the Dark Lord for book 2. And I liked the fact that the teenage magical heroine (sole survivor of her clan) gets married at the end of chapter 2 and then spends 20 years farming and raising kids before the plot starts in chapter 3.
