Location: Southeastern Pennsylvania		Now that I've finished the High Fantasy reading challenge, it's time to move ahead with the Grand Mistresses challenge. Earlier today I finished Gate of Ivrel, CJ Cherryh's first published novel and the first as well in her four-book Morgaine Cycle. Cherryh's talents are evident even in this first published effort of hers. Her writing is not quite as polished as it would later become, but the tale is still a very good one, with the motivations of the protagonists being much richer than the standard "stop the bad things, save the world" fantasy trope. I look forward to continuing the challenge with the next book in the Morgaine Cycle.
