The Snow Spider Trilogy

Sometimes you know you are going to love a book even before you read it. That’s exactly what happened when I picked up The Snow Spider Trilogy. One look at the front cover and I knew I had to read it. There are three books all packed into a four hundred and eighty page book. The Snow Spider, Emlyn’s Moon and The Chestnut Soldier. It’s about a boy called Gwyn Griffiths who gets four gifts for his ninth birthday. A brooch, a piece of seaweed, an old broken horse and a scarf that once belonged to his sister who had disappeared on the mountain four years before. These were given to him by his grandmother who told him to cast them into the wind. When he casts the brooch of the side of the mountain the wind sends something back. Arianwen the snow spider. This tale got me hooked right away and I followed Gwyn through all three adventures. I would recomend this book to people who like fantasy stories because that’s exactly what this book is.
