The Daughters of Dark Root #5.2
A Dark Root Samhain: A Lesson in Magick
It is Merry's last Samhain in Dark Root, and Maggie's last chance to convince her older sister to stay. That means everything has to be perfect this Haunted Dark Root festival.
But the veil has thinned and both spirits and demons are free to pass between worlds, blurring the line between the living and the dead. When a sacred ring of unfathomable power disappears, Maggie must put aside her personal agenda to find the artifact before the sun sets on Dark Root forever.
This short story was originally written for the Witch or Treat anthology (2017). It is a stand alone short with a few spoilers.

This was another awesome short story that brought depth to the Dark Root series. Aasheim is masterful in imagery as she makes her characters come alive in the pages of all her books. When she describes a setting, you see it, when she describes a smell, a taste, a sensation...you can identify with it. Highly recommend this short story.

Easy read
Very easy to read can normally finish in a day. Definitely helps if you need a small vacation from reality for a short while

Another great story!!
I love this book! It gave me an even deeper look at how Dark Root was when the girls were young. April manages to capture my attention with every book about Dark Root.
