Better!

I read that Witch Child and Sorceress were meant to be one book and it is obviously so. I read WC first but was disappointed in the ending, because its so well intertwined with S...you just have to keep reading. I personally found S to be more interesting but WC is the set up. I don't think you neeed to read WC to be entertained by S, but you really should read both, back to back. I'm excited for Pirates next.

Wow. This was amazing. I was so happy that there was a sequel to "Witch Child", and it didn't disappoint. It was a bit sad a some points;
I admit I cried when Mary's daughter died, and then when Jaybird died, but I admired how Mary was able to go on.


However, this is the part that made me cry the most :
"Instead I prayed fervently that Jaybird would stop in his own journey along the way of the dead. That the thongs of his moccasins would snap, and as he bent to mend them, his Speckled Bird would come to him, a quick flying thing. He would sweep her up and carry her on his shoulders, as he had so many times in life, so now in death, and they would go forward together to Kiehtan's great door."

3.5 Upliv modernoga u nastavak iz prvog dijela nije baš najsretnije izveden, pa je malo upropastilo atmosferu, ali svejedno napeta knjiga. Lijepo je bilo saznati što se događa s likovima nakon prvog dijela.

It was a lot better than WC and that last sentence was just amazing. I'm glad I finally read this book, I feel a huge relief now.

I liked this book, but not nearly as much as the first book. It was a good wrap up to Mary's story, but It was just that - a wrap up. I didn't think it told much of the new characters.
