Well-Met by Moonlight by Zoey Daniels

[reviews_and_ramblings]

In the past Rhys and Isaac had something beautiful, but then Isaac left; why is not clearly say, but Rhys is not accusing Isaac, so probably Isaac had his reason. One night, at midnight, while the Moonlight Sonata is playing in the background, Rhys meets by chance Isaac. It's not clear if Rhys has ever tried to contact Isaac before, but this is the first time he sees again the man after many years.

Few words, a plea, and Isaac smiles again as if years haven't passed, and as if Rhys and Isaac were still young. Under the snow which is starting to fall, Rhys and Isaac are again together, but it's real or it's dream? Rhys meets Isaac in this world or in another world? I have a strange feeling on this tale, I re-read more time the last page to try to understand if I missed something. What I understand is that Isaac actually doesn't speak, so he can be a figment of Rhys' imagination, the materialization of what Rhys wants, of what he has missed.

A strange interesting tale, a sip of only 10 pages, but with a careful use of words and images, to weave a sweet tale.

Oh darn - is it paranormal? I was just about to buy it, too!

Mmm, I don't know. It's pretty strange, actually nothing happens to define it clearly as a paranormal, but it gave me a feeling of up-hanging, almost if the meeting happens in Rhys's alterlife. But it's my idea, not something clearly said in the story. Elisa

Oh -sorry - I was just going on the tag you used. !

[elisa-rolle.livejournal.com]

Yes, I was not sure if I should use that tag. Than I remember the other book I read by Zoey Daniels, a fantasy with the same feeling, and so I decided to tag it paranormal instead of contemporary.

Oh! With the mention of the harpischord - I assumed it was historical - hence the the want to buy it.

*i'm so dim*

Actually it's without time. The two met in a market place by night and an harpischord is playing Moonlingh Sonata in the background... so nothing specific about it being an historical. Elisa
