*Starred Review* Sixteen-year-old Deirdre Monaghan, a gifted harpist who regularly plays for weddings and also other events, has got the type of stage fright that produces her physically ill before a performance, that is an inauspicious way to start a romance; but while vomiting before a tournament she meets a gorgeous boy who comes in to the restroom to keep her hair. He could be Luke Dillon, a flautist who proceeds to accompany her inside a truly stellar performance. As four-leaf clovers start appearing everywhere, Deirdre develops telekinetic powers and encounters strange, unworldly those who seem to bear her ill will. Her best friend, James, also a talented musician; her beloved grandmother; and her mother all are in danger, as Deirdre is targeted from the queen of Faerie. Deirdre eventually discovers she can be a cloverhand, a person who are able to begin to determine the denizens of faerie, and Luke, not the only immortal who has her in his sights, can be a gallowglass, an assassin assigned through the queen of Faerie to kill Deirdre but who falls in love with her instead. This beautiful and out-of-the-ordinary debut novel, with its authentic depiction of Celtic Faerie lore and dangerous forbidden love in a very contemporary American setting, will attract readers of Nancy Werlin’s Impossible (2008) and Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series. Illustrations by Jeffrey are fitting. Grades 9-12. --Diana Tixier Herald
"Vibrant and potent, YA readers searching for faerie stories will likely be happy to get this accomplished debut novel." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Chock-full from the fierce and the fey, Maggie Stiefvater's Lament is musical, magical, and practically radiating romance. A blood-fresh reinvention of old traditions, perfect for engaging sharp minds and poetic hearts." --Cynthia Leitich Smith, author of Tantalize
