I don’t know what happened. For some reason I just couldn’t continue reading. This book, with the cover and summary, was totally up my alley but I tried…I really tried. I guess I was just too confused at some points with the history and I wasn’t met with the pressing need to find out what happened next. As it turns out, Alison was the sister that was able to “lean” on people, meaning, she was able to go into their minds; so there was the sorcery aspect of it. And Wildecent was actually not her b

It took me a while to get into this book. Then I read it obsessively for most of two days. I ended by wanting to sue the author for ending the story part way through. This was clearly intended to be the first of a series, and the library doesn't have the follow up, if indeed it exists.

Ok, this is a young adult medieval wicca novel. Not my usual fare. But I remembered really liking it as a kid and felt this urge to reread. Wasn't really that great the second time around... I had trouble understanding it, actually. Guess you have to be 13.
