It was followed in 1984 by A Gathering of Gargoyles, and concluded in 1989 with The Pearl of the Soul of the World. Published in 1982, The Darkangel featured a story that Pierce claims came to her all at once while she read the account of a dream recounted to Carl Jung, one of the fathers of psychiatry. Her first book started a trilogy often referred to as The Darkangel Trilogy. Her books deal in fantasy worlds with mythic settings and frequently feature young women who first wish only to love and be loved, yet who must face hazard and danger to save their way of life, their world, and so on, usually without being respected for their efforts until the end of the story. I enjoyed this trilogy, having first been introduced as a child, but I think I get more out of these lovely adventure stories as an adult.Meredith Ann Pierce (born July 5, 1958, in Seattle, Washington) is a fantasy writer and librarian. The second one avoids the trap of serving as little more than a seguay from the first to the third novel, and is a capable story itself, one which leaves readers hungry for more. The writing is somewhat effusive, but highly descriptive, if a bit artificial at times. This installation focuses more on plot than the first one, as the rich world has already been constructed, and the author is more free to weave elements of the characters' worlds into a rich tapestry. This book has him traveling to find his mate, but when tragedy strikes, he finds himself in the world of the two-leggeds, which we didn't even have an inkling of in the first book. It continues to tell the story of Jan, the Firebringer, and his adventures with his band. This is the second book of the trilogy, which wasn't really intended to be so when the first book was published, but since the initial one left many questions unanswered this one works fairly well.
