A Discovery of Witches (All Souls Trilogy, #1)


My rating: 5 of 5 stars


i just finished this one and found the other 2 are also available. so my next step will be to snarf them up as fast as possible!


why? because it is a cliff hanger with wonderful writing and a really good narrator!


normally i dislike series books that have to be read in order but this is one is worth it! it has all sorts of .... weirdness (for lack of a better word). when the region is ruled by women, things are generally run well. when it run by men...different story. want to guess the sex of the ruler. you're right, a king! and things are not good.


the king has a married brother who becomes the father of twin...one boy, one girl. a things are really bad as the king and new uncle has seen to it that girls who would be in line for the crown are dying.


attending the delivery are a witch and 2 scorchers. the girl child must be protected if there is ever to be good new in the land...but how?


listen to find out for yourself and meet ghosts and warriors and people who go a bit batty. if you don't, you're going to miss some great lines that will give you a giggle, some emotions you will understand with just a bit of thought provoking ideas.


yes, i do highly recommend this book!
