Yeah, well. My favorite remains Forests of the Heart, with the mix of Spanish/south-western America traditions and the Celtic, and Native American. Someplace to be Flying would probably be my second favorite. Trader was a distant third. Onion Girl was disappointing and disjointed, but I got the sense he was trying to push his style and experiment, and I could respect that even if I thought the story suffered a bit as a result. Jack of Kilrowan is a good, solid story, though it's all British Isles and bewildered Americans.
Haven't read Svaha, and haven't read the one about the Internet spirit world--just a bit tired of botticelli girls and pre-raphaelite curls. I'm looking forward to having the time to read Alma's and Kij's and Holly's books, and then I'll see how much time I have to read the rest of the lot.
