Customer Reviews

Loved it..Is there More?

I don't like to go into detail when doing a book review, I will just say that as with the previous 3 I absolutely loved it. I agree with the other reviewer..engrossing. I was starting to get a bit tired of Sudi and her low self esteem, and lack of confidence, but still..I enjoyed enough to finish in one day!

Engrossing

As the title of the fourth Sisters of Isis book suggests, Sudi is being haunted, and not just by the ghost that has decided to be subservant of her. An old-friend-turned-enemy is stalking her, just as it becomes apparent that Sudi's not mastering her powers as well as the other two Descendants. This latest installment is surprisingly intricate, filled with various interweaving plotlines that make it an engrossing read. It drags a bit near the climax as a certain twist is explained, one that isn't even that surprising to require such lengthy explanation, but it doesn't detract too much from the action, fantasy, and humor fans of the series have come to expect. Readers can easily relate to Sudi's sense of helplessness as she struggles to gain control of both her destiny and everyday life, and its her relatability in general that seals this book's addictiveness. I look forward to reading the future adventures Sudi and her friends will have to face in the Sisters of Isis series.
