Strands of Sunlight has likeable, believable, human characters - #1 in importance in my opinion.It also tackles important subjects such as racism, justice, and child abuse. Most of all, it offers a feeling of hope. Loved this book!
A new twist to an old theme...

Fantasy has , in many ways become stagnant. Or at least it was becoming so, until this wonderful writer appeared. She has taken old, dried up themes from medievalist D & D genres and brought them into the '90's .. She tackles everything from abusive relationships to racism in this book-- with style and grace. Reading this book truly makes you believe... at least while you're reading the book--that Elven blood runs through your veins, and that it is waking up, and that there IS mystery and magick.
Better than chocolate!

Strands of Sunlight is an absolutely wonderful book and definately the best of Gael Baudino's writings that I have read so far. She has a certain sense of reality, of truth in her words that read more like an autobiography than a fantasy novel. Her characters are amazingly well developed, the mood perfect, and the ending is not only suprising but also leaves the reader with a feeling of cleanliness and light (that kind you get after taking a shower and the sun is shining beneath the clouds as you look out the window, a rainbow shimmering like a mirrage but still tangible as you sigh and smile) ^_^;; Well, read it and see! I'm certain you will fall in love not only with her characters but the author herself! =P
