Hence the name? The second half of my name comes from Dallandra becuase I think it sounds nice

Coming in a little late here, but...Yes, I would give this set a thumbs up. Kerr has apparently been plagued by some shoddy publishing, and yet she still managed to put out a great series. BTW, if anyone is interested and not already aware, she has four excerpts from her next book, The Gold Falcon, on her website, Deverry.com (http://deverry.com/) .

I wasn't aware - thank you and I only have one word to say over and over again "Salamander, Salamander, Salamander, Salamander"

Can I recommend Snare :)

I am about half way through the book at the moment and it's been a really good read so far.

I'm unsure though if this isnt a stand alone book.

Snare I think is a stand alone book, as is Palace which is a good little sci-fi story she co-wrote.

Just to add I would also recommend the Deverry series. Enjoyed Snare too.

Could I recommend the Polar City books,
