As the publication of The Witchwood Crown draws nearer, many readers all over the globe are re-discovering the magic of Memory, Sorrow and Thorn and what it means to them. This trilogy holds a special place in the heart of many, many readers. Back in January, we linked to a couple a re-read posts and appreciations. But many more have been posted since, so we would like to share some more with you.

Absolutely loved Memory,Sorrow,and Thorn. I have read them multiple times. Each time, I feel like I have discovered something new to the story.It is exciting to be going back to Osten Ard. Looking forward to the release of The Witchwood Crown. I just know it is going to be amazing. Thank you Mr. Williams for a new adventure.
