Diana Bennett Reviewer
Be prepared for a phenomenal conclusion well worth the
wait endured. It was a difficult task to review the second
part without spoilers but I fear it may be next to impossible
here. With that said anyone who has not read the first two
in the series, Eve and Merilynn, should be warned there
will be spoilers in this review.
*Spoilers*
When Merilynn with the help of the ghost of both Holy Gale
and Eve sets out to find the answers that will both destroy
the evil sorceress and free the spirits she has collected
in Applehead Lake, it leaves her childhood friend Samantha
and her new friend Kendra to try and put together the pieces
of what lies beneath the dark sisterhood they are now a
part of.
Suspicions are high and the girls must be wary of everything
they say and do, with the disappearance on Merilynn, Malory
and her familiar Brittany seem to watch every move they
make. There is a battle of grand proportions on the horizon
that leaves many questions needing to be answered. Just
what is so special about Merilynn? Will her background that
has been shroud in secrecy hold the answers needed before
it is too late and all is lost?
*End Spoilers*
In the final part of the trilogy author Tamara Thorne sinks
her teeth in the meat of the myths surrounding this story.
I was totally in awe of the way she tied everything together
and weaved a complete background for not only the haunting
ghost story, but also the powerful evil that ruled at Greenbriar
University, and still took it a step further with the fascinating
history of Merilynn and her parents.
I have been so totally engrossed with each part of this
series and I may be repeating myself here, but I just feel
compelled to say that Tamara Thorne is an excellent storyteller.
Her work is griping and entertaining, dark and at times
humorous, as well as having just the right amount of sensual
tension.
This series has earned a place in my top five must read
recommendations and Tamara Thorne is now on my list of authors
whose work I must collect.
