A summary of the new book, Ysabel, by one of my favorite authors - Guy Gavriel Kay.
The new book by Guy Gavriel Kay is not up to his usual standards. It has, however, spent some time on the New York Times Booklist. Generally his books will appeal to various ages of readers but I felt that this one was only aimed at a teen audience, especially as the main character is a 15 yr old Canadian boy spending the summer in the south of France with his father. The book follows his adventures as he becomes involved in a "story" from the region. As always, Kay incorporates the history of an area very adroitly and creates a modern myth that appeals to readers of fantasy. As a teen/young adult book, it works very well.
