A review by ksbarnum
The Dark Awakening by D.L. Blade

5.0

D.L. Blade makes her writing debut with a bang. The imagination of this author is solidly backed by strong writing, character development, and story telling that constantly keeps the pages turning.
Written from the point of view of Mercy, a strong-willed teenager and recently realized witch; The Dark Awakening is a wild ride that dives into the world of witches, vampires, and werewolves so beautifully intertwined that you forget this is a world of fantasy. Set in modern times in real life places, it is hard to not imagine the possibilities that these characters could be among us.
This book is a great quick read that is captivating and leaves you wanted more, luckily there are two more in this adventure and I cannot wait.
