The first book in the Sisters of Salem trilogy about twin witches from the powerhouse duo P.C. and Kristin Cast!
Double double, twins spell trouble…
Hunter and Mercy Goode are twin witches, direct descendants of the founder of their town of Goodeville. As their ancestors have done before them, it is now time for the twins to learn what it means to be Gatekeepers–the protectors of the Gates to different underworlds, ancient portals between their world and realms where mythology rules and nightmares come to life.
When their mother becomes the first victim in a string of murders, the devastated sisters vow to avenge her death. But it will take more than magic to rein in the ancient mythological monsters who've infected their peaceful town.
Now Hunter and Mercy must come together and accept their destiny or risk being separated for good.
Something wicked this way comes...
Twin sisters, Mercy and Hunter are witches, direct descendants of the Goode family, the founders of their town. After the murder of their mother at the hands of a foul demon, they have become the protectors of the Gates to different underworlds--ancient portals between their world and realms where mythology rules and the darkest of creatures exist.
Grief has taken a terrible toll on the twins. Rather than bringing them together, their sadness has torn them apart, driving Mercy to attempt to save the crumbling Gates without her twin and Hunter into the arms of a dangerous goddess. While Mercy looks for aid from Khenti, Guardian of the Egyptian Underworld, Hunter begins to realize the goddess she's allied with is more monster than deity. She needs her sister's help, but Mercy is beyond her reach on an adventure that could cost them everything, including their world.
My Review:
I had such a great time reading these books! I've enjoyed their previous world, and I was excited to start this one. The prologue was immediately engrossing, and I had to learn more about this world, and getting to know these sisters!
It's the girls' birthday, and it's time for them to get initiated, and to take up the task of guarding the gates to the underworlds. And boy, do things get going quickly! I loved watching these stories unfold, and I need to know where it's going to go from here!
There was a lot going on in these books. With this world of magic and the Underworld gates and the various mythologies that are coming into play, and the murders that claimed their mother's life, as well as the relationship between the twins, there's a lot going on. It worked so well, and I couldn't put them down!
By Omens Bite, we've gotten to know these characters and this world, and things are getting worse. It's a darker book, and the twins are pretty top tier in their miscommunication, and there's some bad feelings there. I wish they'd just sit down and talk it out, they needed each other! And oh, that ending was an evil cliffhanger! I need to know more!
These were really great reads, and I can't wait for book 3!
