DESCRIPTION:
"Impressive Young Adult Novel" according to AshaNigeria. I wasn't sure what to expect when I read this book, and I was happily surprised. It is a page-turner with vividly drawn teenage characters. The plot is seeped in magic but somehow believable. The author is able to juggle all his balls in the air and he/she keeps adding more. There is a staggering breadth of research, history, and mythology woven together in a convincing manner. This is a story about magic, young love, travel, and fate. I enjoyed it a great deal. I hope there's a sequel.. M. Purfield said Pretty darn good!. Not a bad debute. Thought the characters were interesting and kept me turning the pages (er clicking the button on the kindle). My only qualm was that the middle part felt like it was slowing the action and in whole the novel felt a litttle too long. But if you're into rich novels that have epic feels, then this should be a great read for ya.. Nanda Mama said Great book for your teen or yourself. I am a pretty fussy reader, and never read teen fiction. But this book was different. It is not just the story of an angst-ridden girl of privilege but of an entire world right before our eyes. Marge is a likable enough character but it is her friends and family and what they bring to the table that makes this story interesting and page-turning. Marge casts a simple love spell and all hell breaks loose. She travels through time, learns about her roots and reclaims her place among the most powerful of time benders and light shifters. This story has incredible versions of history that will keep you deeply immersed and actual
Marge has to sort out friends from enemies, discover who she is and what she can do, and just plainly survive as supernatural forces stalk her and her friends across two continents.. Unhappy and lonely she buys a paperback "Witchcraft for Idiots - A Complete Guide for the Modern Day Wicca Practitioner" and starts performing rituals. In her own words, "it's all mambo-jumbo, new age stuff, self-motivational crap." After several careless choices, her life starts to unravel and her family's deepest secrets start to come out. Marge is sixteen, but she already knows love, heartbreak, and death in the family. Those secrets are both recent and ancient, mundane and the ones that connect her to the American Revolution, Arthurian legends, Roman Empire, foundations of Christianity, Atlantis, and even involve something large, furry, and intelligent. She doesn't expect them to work
