The Witches at the End of the World
The Witches at the End of the World | Chelsea Iversen
1 post | 2 read | 1 to read
Rage burns brighter than any spellfire... Deep in the birchwoods of Norway, magic courses through the veins of two sisters. For years they've been alone, but sweet-tempered Kaija is tired of living in shadows and longs for a life filled with community, even if it means stifling her magic. But Minna is a witch through and through, with wrath always simmering just below the surface. Different as they may be, both will never forget the day they were driven from their village. The day their mother burned. When Kaija leaves to pursue a new life, Minna is left alone in the darkness of the forest. Devastated and outraged at the betrayal, Minna casts a curse to punish those who took everything from her. What she doesn't realize is that this act will incite a deadly chain of events. Soon it will destroy everything, including the life Kaija has lovingly built. But once a witch's rage boils, regret means nothing-she can't take back what's already done. Someone will have to burn.

Mehso-so

Set in 17th century Norway, this witchy tale of two sisters unfolds a bit slowly. Kaija and Minna have spent the last decade secluded in the birch wood, safe from the wrath of the village that claimed their mother‘s life. But after their Mormor‘s death, the sisters must each embrace their own magic & fates. I loved the setting & magic but wish the characters had more depth and development. Still, a strong debut that made for a good Halloween read!
