2022 book 175

 Patricia McKillip’s The Sorceress and the Cygnet

This was on the slower/weirder side of McKillip's stuff, but I came around to liking it by the end (I did almost give up on it several times during the first third though). It’s about a young man given a quest to complete or his people will be lost in a misty dreamland forever, the sorceress who helps him, and eventually her family (things get much more interesting once they come into play). Good stuff here about families and stories and magic. But slow as hell. B+.
