A Thrilling Conclusion

Though I'm not exactly sure, I believe Fatal Charm is the last book in the Seer series by Linda Joy Singleton. And as the fifth book, it rocks! Seriously, I went to Borders the day this book came out and asked one of the saleswomen to open the box in back for me. She did and I finished the book in a few hours. Such a wonderful book. It is so unlike the previous four, and so much longer! I almost couldn't believe how captivating it was -- but that's Singleton's style, right? This book wasn't just about Sabine finding a charm. This book was about Sabine's journey. Singleton introduced so many new twists and turns (that I won't give away in this review). I was so happy with the outcome. She wrapped things up nicely. Sabine is a truly unique character. I loved reading about her reactions and her thoughts. The only downside to the book was the lack of Manny and Thorn. They didn't exactly play large roles, but still the book was great. I definitely encourage anyone and everyone to read this book. Of course, I would recommend the previous four books in the Seer series first. If you enjoy fantasy, then you'll enjoy this series.

Worth the wait!

Still keeping quiet about her psychic gift, Sabine is totally thrilled to return to her grandmother Nona's farm and be back with her friends and boyfriend in safe Sheridan Valley. But Nona's rapidly failing health has Sabine and Dominic frantically unraveling the coded charms to find a lost cure-hidden for over 100 years. Linda Singleton takes the reader on a whirlwind adventure. This is the fifth book in The Seer series. I loved all of her books but this one was so worth the wait. There's romance, mystery, danger, and even a surprise. I would recommend this book and the rest of the series to those who enjoyed such books as BLUE IS FOR NIGHTMARES and THE MEDIATOR series.

Book 5. Fabulous!

Sabine Rose keeps quiet about her psychic abilities. They have already given her more grief than any one person should have to deal with in a life time. Yet these gifts may be what helps Sabine save Nona, her grandmother. Nona is slowly losing her memories. Unless Sabine and Dominic, Nona's young handyman and apprentice, can find the hidden remedy book of an ancestor, Nona will soon slip into a coma. So when Sabine moves back in with Nona in Sheridan Valley, she is ecstatic! All her new friends welcome her back with open arms. Josh, Sabine's boyfriend, is big on helping kids. He convinces Sabine to sign up as a mentor during a camping trip for disadvantaged kids. It is a three-day weekend event to be held in less than two weeks. But Josh is also acting differently. He now has a three letter tattoo and refuses to discuss what the letters mean. Josh is not the only one acting or feeling different. Sabine cannot stop herself from dreaming of Dominic or getting excited just by his close presence. Sabine is being pulled between two guys and is unable to decide which she honestly wants. But all that must wait, because Dominic has found the fourth, and last, missing charm. After over one hundred and fifty years, the charms are together again. Agnes, Sabine's ancestor, gave one charm to each of her four daughters long, long ago. Together they give all the clues needed to locate a remedy book Agnes hid. With all four charms in their possession, Sabine and Dominic are in a race against time to find the book and cure Nona. If all that is not enough to keep Sabine busy, she also learns to astral travel. During one astral travel, Sabine spies on Jade, the half-sister she recently found out about. Dad refuses to tell his current family about Jade and her mother, Crystal. Sworn to secrecy, Sabine cannot help but resent Jade for her very existence. Yet when Sabine witnesses a murder during her astral spying, she immediately calls Dad. The victim looked like Crystal. ***** This is the fifth book of THE SEER series. If you do not read the previous books, you may find yourself a bit lost at times. All the secondary characters from the previous stories are mentioned, though a couple play no real part in this episode. The author ties up all loose strings and answers all the questions her readers have been eager to know. Yet, at the same time, the author COULD continue the series, using a few continuous running sub-plots. Will the story continue or end here? We, the readers, must wait and see. One thing is for sure, this is not one to miss! Fabulous! ***** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.
