Wow. I haven;t heard those mentioned in a long time. I did love those Daggerspell books, especially the first three when the reincarnations were really brought to the fore. The later ones were all right, but there ceased to be so much of the reflection of the old instances of personalities being brought forward to the new people.
Who is the author, btw? I might recognize that.

Katharine Kerr, this is her long Deverry series (made up of multiple trilogies/quartets). I read the first book, Daggerspell for a book club a couple years ago, I was really impressed with it.
Aha, Kerr, her I have heard of. Yes.
(Not that I couldn't have looked it up myself... I still keep forgetting I own an internet.)
L.
I read them all back in the day (you know, the nineties...) I really loved them, but lost touch for a while and haven't read any of the last five. (I just realised she has revisited the series after ten years and published a new book last year.) I would love to read the rest, but it feels like a bit to much work to get into that world again after 20 years. Maybe when I retire. (In another about 20 years...) ;-)
