The finest hero around: Faolan
As an avid reader of this author I can say that Marillier is a master in character development, being the couple of this book, Faolan and Eile, accurate examples of this. Since his first brief yet memorable appearance in The Dark Mirror, Faolan intrigued me, and while I'm pretty sure that happened mostly because he was quite the mysterious type, with an obviously injured heart and soul, I'm also sure that, along the way, he became more and more fascinating because there's just so much to him, and one could perfectly sense from the beginning he was going to be a most complex and substantial character. There're so many things I could say about this book, I could mention the action sequences, the political drama, the other parts of the story regarding Bridei and Tuala, Ana and Drustan, or perhaps mention the technical side such as the rich and beautiful writing, and so on, but ultimately I'll always recommend The Well of Shades because it tells an engaging tale of two magnetic characters with so many personal demons to fight, so many wounds to heal, and that are so perfect for each other. by Carla Costa
