About the author
Sheridan Winn
29 books25 followersTHE SPRITE SISTERS - 4 SISTERS, 4 ELEMENTS, 4 POWERS
Sheridan Winn lives in Norfolk, England, where she was born. She is known for her fantasy adventure series, The Sprite Sisters, which has sold over half a million books. A major feature film - Vier Zauberhafte Schwestern - was released in 2020. It was produced by blue eyes fiction and distributed by Disney Deutschland.
The idea for the Sprite Sister books popped into Sheridan’s head, late one night. She was very lucky to be able to find a publisher, Piccadilly Press, who liked her idea and gave her a contract to write the first book, The Circle of Power.
This was followed by The Magic Unfolds, The Secret of the Towers, The Ghost in the Tower, New Magic, The Boy With Hawk-like Eyes, Magic at Drysdale's School and The Mystery of the Locked Door. The books are best read in sequence but are stand-alone stories.
There are currently eight English-language Sprite Sister titles published by Sheridan Winn Limited and available as paperbacks and as e-books for Kindle. The German titles – of which there are 14 – are published by Fischer Verlag. (Ten titles in the main series and four prequel stories).
Vol 9, A Wisdom of Owls, and Vol 10, The Power of Four (the final story), will be published in English language in due course.
The eldest of four sisters, Sheridan Winn grew up in a rambling country house and many of the elements in the Sprite stories come from her own childhood. The stories are deeply rooted in the landscape of Norfolk and every location is somewhere real.
There is a lot of information on her website: www.sheridanwinn.com

This book makes me cry no matter how often I read it it's so wonderful 5.5/5

Das war das letzte Buch, was ich damals aus der Reihe gelesen habe. Mehr gab es dazu nicht & ich weiß noch, dass ich das Buch als gelungenen Abschluss wahrnahm, auch wenn es mir schwer fiel die Schwestern weiterlebenzulassen, ohne ihr Leben zu begleiten.
Umso freudiger stellt ich soeben fest, dass es weitere Teile der Reihe gibt, die ich mir mit Freuden nun zu Gemüte führen werde. Alter spielt keine Rolle, wenn man eine Geschichte liebt!

Mal wieder zuckersüß. Was anderes lässt sich kaum dazu sagen. Dieses Mal war sogar mehr Spannung und Aufregung dabei, auch wenn es „nur“ ein Kinderbuch ist. Habe es mal wieder sehr gerne gelesen. Themen wie Familienzusammenhalt, Versöhnung, und Schwesternliebe wurden total schön verpackt.

5/5 🌟

This book is sooo exciting. Verena suddenly gets magic powers, and Glenda, who usually is really mean, is nice and kind to everyone. The four sisters have to tell their parents that they have ,magic powers. Everything gets really complicated. I recommend this book to girls, ages 10 and up, who like fantasy books.
