Book Reviews of Witch
Book Review: I am in love with this world
Summary: 5 Stars
You'd think it'd be difficulty reading about a character that was once two people but is now one person and retain both minds, but it was actually not confusing at all. I don't even know if I can explain it properly, but I'll try, its not that Mirie has two voices speaking in her head but that she retains both women memories and histories.
Miryo and Mirage at the end of Doppelganger had successfully found a way to become one person again, immediately becoming the only witch who could achieve void magic and although in the end it seemed everything turned out OK Warrior and Witch shows the consequences of both females' actions. As the synopsis says not everyone agrees that Mirie should live or that the tradition of killing doppelganger children should be discontinued and this results in the division of The Primes which almost instantly results in a war.
Warrior and Witch really showed the different inner struggles of the human mind and the test of loyalty and bonds. This series has an excellent balance of plot and character development and these are the stories I love the most.
If Doppelganger made me interested in the world Marie Brennan created then this book really made me fall in love with it. By the end I was wishing for another book not caring who it was about as long as it took place in the same world. So much more was revealed in this sequel and I can't help but wonder what else there is to find out.
Summary of Witch
When a witch is born, a doppelganger is created. For the witch to master her powers, the twin must be killed. Until now...Created by the merging of witch and doppelganger, Mirei is a unique being. Her extraordinary magic makes her the most poweful witch alive -- and a notorious social outcast. While Satomi, the leader of the witches' ruling Primes, hails Mirei as a miracle, rival Primes proclaim that Mirei is an evil abomination...and that those who champion her must be destroyed.
Now the different witch factions engage in a bloody war with magic, treachery, and murder. But both sides may be fighting for nothing. For the power that the rebel Primes fear, the magic that Mirei alone possesses, is killing her.
