Love all of Tilly Wallace

This series kept my interest from start to finish. Clean and fun entertainment. Much appreciated!

Wish these would continue…

As with all Tilly’s work, I love this collection. It’s different from her other work in that the character’s gift is left mysterious, even to herself. For me this makes it even more intriguing, and I am left longing to learn more with her.

The narrator is also different than with her other work, but perfect for this story. She helps to bring all the characters depth forward and is a pleasure to listen to.

Tilly’s talent for description never disappoints as she transports you to the time and places in her stories. One can easily see the surroundings, feel the cultural significance, and struggles of the times for many groups of people. She gives hope and kindness and opens one’s mind to more than what they have experienced in their own lives.

All her books are enchanting and this series is no different in that regard. Wonderful escapism, filled with true meaningful friendships and support. And, as always, a little magic.

Agenda

Good until an agenda became more clear. Enjoyed the narrator and the different characters voices.
