There was nothing really remarkable about these books, but it was still a pretty good read, especially if you like lore and witches. They started off a bit slow, but picked up enough to keep me going, especially the middle. I think book four was my favorite.it had a good, bittersweet ending, and part of me is looking forward to reading her “Children of Dark Root” series.
I read the first book, because I got it free from Amazon prime. It was such a fun book, I eagerly read each successive book. I didn’t want to take a break between the books, because they were so good! There’s lots of twists and turns in the plot, and I couldn’t begin to guess what would happen next. For me, that’s the true test of a good book vs. a great book. I won’t pretend this is ever going to be a classic series of books, but it didn’t detract from my enjoyment reading the books.
This is my second time reading this series. The first time through it was by paperback and I loved it so much that I bought it for my! Amazon Fire. The story is so amazing and I loved the magic and twists and turns along the way. I feel connected to Maggie and everything she has to go through to find peace. I will read this series over and over again
Fantastic series! Once I started, I had to read all of the books. Loved ALL of the varied characters and the intriguing storylines. Dark Root is a place I'd love to visit. Lots of twists and fun turns and even some unexpected but "familiar" characters pop up later in the 5th book.
I give this book 4/5, even though the last book and the ending kind of fell flat for me. I immensely enjoyed the other books, im not quite sure what happened with the last book. I don't think I will continue and read the Children of Dark Root.
