Mochizuki Gyokusen unterschreibt hier mit dem Künstlernamen Heian 平安, was ein alter Name für Kyoto und vor allem auch Kaiserhof bedeutet. Noch keine 20 Jahre alt führte Gyokusen Aufträge für den Kaiserhof in Kyoto aus und wurde später ein Mitglied der Kaiserlichen Kunstkommission. Er gewann viele Preise und war in Kyoto hoch angesehen. Die spezielle Signatur soll womöglich die Aura von schlichter höfischer Eleganz dieses Gold-Stellschirms unterstreichen.

Wie bei Wachtel-Bildern üblich, wird hier höchste Sorgfalt auf das differenzierte prachtvolle Federkleid der Vögel gelegt. Dagegen sind die Hirsestauden nur mit wässeriger Tusche und etwas Braungelb Ton in Ton gemalt. Der Duktus dieser Pinselführung ist großzügig und befreit, und er ist in guter Balance zur Kostbarkeit des feingemusterten Gefieders der Vögel. Der Goldgrund fördert beim Betrachter edles Prachtempfinden dieser klassischen Vogelszene, denn Wachteln waren schon in China ein beliebtes Vogelmotiv. Sie wurden nicht nur deshalb gemalt, weil sie ein so bezauberndes Federkleid aufweisen, sondern weil man ihren kämpferischen Charakter bewunderte. So wie man Hahnenkämpfe veranstaltete, gab es im Alten China auch Wachtelkämpfe. 

In diesem Bild wird aber eine andere Tugend dieser Vögel betont. Wachteln sollen einen ausgeprägten „Familiensinn“ haben, denn Männchen und Weibchen bleiben ein Leben lang zusammen. Die Haltung der beiden Tiere hier ist im Verständnis des traditionellen japanischen Malers unzweifelhaft jene von „kühnem Mann“ und „devoter Frau“. Befindet sich auf der rechten Seite ein weiteres Familienmitglied (eventuell ein Kind), das vom Männchen herbeigerufen wird? – es bewegt sich eindeutig nach links, wo sich das Vogelpaar befindet und bindet so – nicht formal, doch inhaltlich - die beiden Stellwandteile zusammen.

Great Read!!! Great story!!!
Format: Kindle
The series is long, but Ms. Wolfhart does a fantastic job of weaving this tale while bringing so much to the characters. Surprises and plot twists along the way to keep you intrigued. There is some graphic sex, but is no way the focal point. Grammar was excellent (a rare find with a lot of self publishers) with only a few noted errors. I rarely give 4 stars, let alone 5.

Sadly, DNF
Format: Kindle
I read this thru KU. I LOVED the synopsis. And then I began reading... and it was a DNF at 68% after picking it up and putting it down several times because I really loved the main female character. *****SPOILERS***** Pros: The world is unique, intriguing and fun. The primary female character is bad-a** but not a b*tech or a mary sue. The primary female has depth. I really want to know what happens to her even tho it's been weeks and I don't remember her name. The villains to the point I read are pretty good -- an ever present threat of mysterious and possibly many culprits. Cons: Way, way too many points of view. I stopped counting at 7. It's the prime reason why I don't care about most of the characters or remember their names even when I like them. There's just too many points of view so almost none of the characters have enough book space for the author to properly develop them. This literally killed the book for me. Actually it killed my desire to read. For weeks. The main male is more villain than hero. He agreed to marry the main female then locks her up & eschews her for her sister, all while bad mouthing her as unfit to rule when he never spent any time with her getting to know her. He is actually unfit to rule as he is blind to the woes of his own kingdom and starts off a peace mission to secure a ceasefire through marriage by murdering an inn full of people in her country for no real reason. Plus, he constantly makes promises he does not keep. And it's gross of him to pine for the sister behind the main female's back. ***** As much as I really wanted to see what happened to the main female character, it wasn't enough for me to keep trying to slog thru this book. There was a lot of potential here that just fell short. Hence, 3 stars.

Fae Courts with High Intrigue
Format: Kindle
This book is one that just builds and builds and then surprises you to no end. You may think you know the villains and then you are jolted in another direction. Princess Reyna is a real gem, strong of character, a fierce fighter, and loyal to her family and kingdom. Just when you think she and Lorcan, well you know, the plot is flipped. Can't wait to see where this goes in book two.

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!
