The first title in a series based on Celtic mythology, Corina Douglas’ Daughter of Winter sets the stage for a battle between the descendant of a winter goddess and a vengeful immortal Druid in this strong first installment to an elaborate series. Brydie MacKay is shocked when her estranged grandmother wills her a Scottish estate, but it turns out she’s inherited something far more dangerous. A cursed prophecy, impacting the next female in line, means that Brydie must travel to Scotland with a mysterious guardian and learn how to wield her magic. While repeated scenes from multiple points of view sometimes slow down the narrative momentum, Douglas’ novel is an exciting fantasy overall with entertaining twists, a fascinating and well-crafted foundation in ancient mythology, plus a touch of romance to satisfy readers of many genres.
