Whilst this book is aimed at an audience much younger than I am, I became fully immersed in this tale. It fuelled my imagination and I can only think it will have a much bigger impact upon those younger than me.
I have long been a fan of old magic. I knew something about the Old Magic of Ireland, more of the Irish storytellers. This book certainly brought the Old Magic to life and gave it meaning in this modern world.
I certainly see a link between old magic and environmental issues. I see young girl befriending two elderly people. I see a bully and a victim and I see the different lives of those two people. I feel the magic swirling around them all, good and evil.
I adore Catshee.
Top marks for the letter to the reader and the appendices.
It is a remarkable book.
I confess I have some confusion about the stone but cannot pursue that without spoilers – and I do hate spoilers.
Thank you to Readers First, Piccadilly Press and Sinead O’Hart for the ARC in return for my honest review.
