An unfinished work

Any criticism of this last novel by Tom Tryon must be tempered by the fact that it was actually an unfinished work at the time of his death & therefore any review must acknowledge that the final version of his novel may not have met even the author's high standards at the time of its publishing. Tom Tryon was an exceptional writer, and those parts of the novel that are clearly written by Mr Tryon are superb... the unsatisfying parts I leave credit for at the feet of those who "finished" writing it for final publication... after his death.

An UNFORGETTABLE last novel from a BRILLIANT Writer!

I read this book a few years ago and was shocked to learn that Thomas Tryon had passed away while revising the story. This will truly be his last novel. I loved Harvest Home (his best), The Other and Lady, but I was not disappointed with Night Magic. The Story was captivating and was hard to put down. At times it was scary and moving, and had a great ending that brought tears to by eyes. I wish there could be more beautiful books from him. Can't wait for the movie. Loved it and hope you will too. He will be missed!
