Flight of the Heron read-along: Part V chapter 5 and Epilogue

[regshoe]

Better loved ye cannae be...

The final chapter.

I'm planning to do a sort of wrap-up post in a couple of days' time for any last thoughts, and to recommend some Flight of the Heron fic and some other books that may be of interest. I will say goodbye and thank you properly then!

It's like Ewen and Keith are part of the Enlightenment and Lachlan is a part of a much older way of life.

I think that's a very good observation, as well as the class angle. So much of what makes Ewen and Keith's relationship work is how, despite their very different backgrounds and opposed allegiances, they do have a shared culture and shared values (as Keith is so surprised to learn at the beginning!)—and those are those of Enlightenment gentlemen. Hmmm.
