The Mountain’s Call by Caitlin Brennan
I really thought I would like Caitlin Brennan’s White Magic Trilogy, I really did! The Mountain’s Call started off so well, very Harry Potter-like with the herioine headed off to this mystical school where she was to learn about the White Horse Gods… but as it went on and on and on… it lost its thrill.
The plot, though intending to become more intense, only became more and more dull. The whole plot is culminating in this “Dance”
