Een zilverreiger in het maanlicht - Dōgen ZenjiZoek naar jezelf en je vindt de ander. Dat is het fundamentele inzicht van de Japanse zenmeester Dgen (1200 1253). Uit onvrede met het boeddhisme van zijn tijd ondernam hij de gevaarlijke zeereis naar China, waar hij na enige omzwervingen uiteindelijk de verlichting of ultieme vrijheid ontdekte.

Zoek naar jezelf en je vindt de ander. Dat is het fundamentele inzicht van de Japanse zenmeester Dōgen (1200-1253). Uit onvrede met het boeddhisme van zijn tijd ondernam hij de gevaarlijke zeereis naar China, waar hij na enige omzwervingen uiteindelijk de verlichting of ultieme vrijheid ontdekte. Terug in Japan schiep hij een even weergaloos als eigenzinnig wijsgerigliterair oeuvre, dat uit talloze doorwrochte preken, gedichten en handboeken voor het kloosterleven bestaat. Een zilverreiger in het maanlicht is de eerste Nederlandstalige bloemlezing uit de volle breedte van Dōgens werk, gebaseerd op de late compilatie Eihei Koroku (‘De uitvoerige optekeningen van Eihei). Centraal in zijn denken en dichten staat het idee dat alle dingen met elkaar verbonden zijn. De hele werkelijkheid is volgens hem te vergelijken met een net dat op ieder knooppunt een stralend juweel bevat. Als je in een edelsteen kijkt zie je alle andere en omgekeerd. De oefenweg om deze verbondenheid te ontdekken, is volgens Dōgen in de eerste plaats zazen of het zitten in meditatie. Tegelijkertijd toont zij zich in de meest alledaagse handelingen, zoals het vegen van de trap of het bereiden van een maaltijd. Het komt erop neer het idee van een vastomlijnd zelf los te laten. Wie zich openstelt voor de wereld, ontdekt de verlichting als intimiteit met alle dingen.

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love. I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series. Favorite quotes: "The truth may be twisted but never false." "Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?" "In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."
