A Red Heart of Memories

Rating:
Summary: Good... . but not as good
Review: As a very well satisfied reader of Hoffman's two earlier books, I was overjoyed to find this one. Unfortunately she goes too far in the fantasy department for me. I can suspend belief so far as to accept ghosts,magic and presences but when never-antimate things communicate with the living it's too much. If you have not read the other Hoffman books treat yourself to them first.

Summary: A Good, Magical Read
Review: As usual, Nina Kiriki Hoffman has written a story that flows easily about characters one can't help caring about and with a dash of hair-standing-on-end witchcraft. If you liked The Thread That Binds the Bones, you'll love this one. It really is a 4.5-star.

Summary: Rising Star of Fantasy
Review: Hoffman is one to watch. For those of you who loved Zelazny, Sturgeon, and Bradbury, keep your eye on this lady. She's the next generation. She has a very sweet style, and blends fantastic imagery with a kind of magic that helps, hinders, and drives charcters to discover themselves.

I have decided to try another of her novels! I highly recommend this book to all fantasy readers. You will enjoy the characters. Enjoy!

Summary: This book was AMAZING!
Review: I normally don't read books like this but it just sucked me in. I can't say much more than that...it will capture you from the first sentence. Nina Hoffman has delivered a work of art with something for every kind of reader and I only hope that we can see more books with Matt.

Review: I really enjoyed this fantasy! It would have left me hanging if I hadn't known about the next book in this series; Past the Size of Dreaming. I enjoyed both and wish that Nina Hoffman would continue on with other books of Matt and Edmund plus the rest of the "house's" children!

Summary: Amazing and Engaging
Review: I'm not usually a reader of fantasy books, but I couldn't resist picking this up. And I'm not sorry I did. Once I plunged in, I couldn't stop. I identified with Matt and Edmund, and almost drank the story line. It was mercilessly easy to follow, and as I finished the story, I found myself wanting to read more of their adventures. This book completely flew by, and I was sorry to see it end.
