5.0 out of 5 stars Compelling, 31 May 2001
By A Customer
This is the second book in the trilogy, and anyone who read the other two books first and didn't notice the events weren't in a logical chronological order must've had their eyes closed. It deals with the bit in between what everyone knows about Arthur's conception (and the deceipt therein) and the Camelot bit and the bad ending. The whole of the Arthurian legend is a myth built on a hint of a legend, and Mary Stewart weaves a rich and compelling tapestry from the few threads we have relating to this period of Merlin's and Arthur's lives. She openly confesses the story to be a work of the imagination, and continues to write with skill that allows you to taste and feel the relevant era. If you have the imagination to be immersed into her supposition, it won't matter whether this conforms with your preconceptions of the Arthurian legend or not. This is escapism that is so well written it feels like historical reality.

5.0 out of 5 stars I read this when it first came out....., 17 Aug 2003
By Janet (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
....... and have been re-reading it at regular intervals ever since.

It's a truly magical book with a very impressive interpretation of the Merlin legend. It sounds genuine and believable.

Read the Trilogy and then read The Wicked Day. Impressive stuff from an impressive writer

3.0 out of 5 stars Just like the other two, 3 April 2001
Well, having managed to struggle through the first two I thought I should finished the trilogy. Ug, it was the same, nothing seemed to happen. Within about two pages she would describe three months worth of action and then spend a whole chapter telling you about an event that was completely pointless. Technically there is nothing wrong with Stewart's style; I didn't mind that at all... i just wish something actually happened!

5.0 out of 5 stars More Merlin Magic - I can't recommend it enough...
The Hollow Hills is the second book in Mary Stewart's Merlin Trilogy. Although it would undoubtedly stand alone itself, I would recommend starting with The Crystal Cave. Read more
