writingwwolves 's review for:
Witch's Pyre
by Josephine Angelini
It had been so long since I read Firewalker that I'd forgotten how much I love this series. I know it has it's problems but I really do like the idea; the plot is really fun and the characters have been written really well. When I got to 75% of the way through I couldn't believe this was the final book, it felt like so much still needed to happen & I didn't think it could happen in such a small amount of pages... it did happen, but I really wish the ending had been longer. I'll try to keep this spoiler free, but the 'discovery' made at the start of this book was SO unexpected and everything that happened within this discovery was really gripping. I've always felt that the world building in these books has been done amazingly well, and Josephine proved that again with what happened in this book. I also loved what happened with the Woven toward the end - I always LOVED the sound of the pack (they're wolf-like, I just can't help myself).
Despite it feeling like it ended quickly the ending was still satisfying (but I'd definitely love another book on how everyone recovers from what happened), and the epilogue made me laugh. I'm super tired and unwell so this review really isn't as long or detailed as some of my other reviews, but I honestly did enjoy the book and I might end up rereading the series at some point (even though my reading list is already far too long) because I think the series could be really, really good if read back-to-back. Part of me really wishes I'd only just discovered the series so I could do just that. I'll miss Lily, she was cute at the start but her growth throughout the books has turned her into a warrior & we all love a strong woman.
