Book Recommended by Rebecca B.
Dacula Branch
Sorceress is the sequel to Witch Child. The book begins with a Native American girl named Agnes being visited in a dream by Mary Newbury, a girl who had been persecuted for being a witch. Mary Newbury was a real person, as is Agnes. Celia Rees says that Sorceress is a work of fiction and that she has tried to make it as accurate as possible.
At the end of the book, there are notes on what happened to others in Mary’s life. There are also diary entreis from Elias Cornwell and letters from Sarah Rivers and Rebekah Morse, people who had been very important in Witch Child.
Sorceress is also a cultural eye-opener. The insight into modern-day Native American life and mind set isn’t something I’m exposed to everyday.
Sorceress quenches the thirst for more that Witch Child induces. I suggest Witch Child and Sorceress for all young adults.
