Scottish folklore meets Austenian comedy of manners
The Ballad of Young Tam Lin
Author: Patricia A. Leslie
Publisher: CreateSpace
Category: fantasy-romance novel Level: All
 The place is the Scottish Borders. The time is 1790. Lady Janet Dunbar, just turned twenty, is a very proper young heiress, who has had a "modern" education, and does not believe in tales about fairies and elves.
But now she is with child, gossips' tongues are wagging, her father the Earl is furious and has ordered her to keep to her chamber until she agrees to reveal her lover's name ...
And Tam Lin -- the handsome, charming young gentleman to whom she so trustingly gave away her virtue on May Day -- has turned out to be the sworn consort of the Elf-Queen of Summerland.
Can anything else go wrong in Janet's neatly-planned life?
Well ... do Fairy-Folk dance in the woods?
This story of a love-triangle which crosses the Veil between worlds, abounds with romantic encounters, whimsy, drama, memorable quirky characters, and a rich evocation of the Elfin otherworld called Summerland. The story has its origins in a traditional Scottish ballad, which has inspired many re-tellings. This is the first to continue the story in an ongoing family saga series of fantasy-romances, generation by generation.
