Genre:
Historical Fiction, Witches, Historical Fantasy
Lilith Legare’s life is unraveling. Since her mother’s death, strange things have been happening - plants turn toward her touch, animals linger in her path, and the birthmark on her arm has started tingling. Worse still is her recurring nightmare of being burned alive at the stake.
Her search for answers brings her from Savannah to England, to the decaying Brackenmere Manor where the past blurs with the present. There, Lilith discovers a legacy she never asked for and along with it, the threat of peril. History must be rewritten, or she too will die.
In 1645 Suffolk, Sybil Brantham stands accused as a witch. An educated, wealthy widow, she is branded a threat by men who fear her independence. As arrests begin and suspicion abounds, Sybil must protect her younger sister, even as betrayal takes root within her household.
Across centuries, Lilith and Sybil are bound by blood and by danger. To save themselves, and each other, they must confront the silence that has stolen women’s power for generations—and dare to claim their voices before it’s too late.
My Thoughts: Madeline
Martin wrote a book that brought me right into the time of the witch
trials. I was living alongside Lilith
and Sybil. I felt the chills when Lilith
was searching for a way to save Sybil.
The pain that Sybil felt while being accused of being a witch was real
to me.
A Time of Witches is a phenomenal book. The paranormal parts of the story were my
favorite. I love seeing today’s
characters interact with yesterday’s characters. The twist of Lillith desperate need to save
Sybil is unique. Both POV’s kept me
entertained and wanting to read more.
Thank you Tall Poppy and the author for a copy of the book
via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
