Book Description:
Every once in an eon, when the Earth eclipses the moon on a winter solstice, an immortal is born under a witching moon. Anne has always had the strangest feelings—memories she couldn’t place; strangers she inexplicably yearned for. After she rescues the enigmatic Phillip from a shipwreck, her comfortable life on the island of Cusabo is shattered, and the mystery of her destiny starts to fall into place. Anne leaves behind the life she’s always known and sets out with Phillip on an arduous journey to Amaranth, where her ancient family awaits her. But the path is dark and daunting, and Anne’s powers have only just begun to manifest.

Review By LAWonder10:
Although The Witching Moon is a fantasy, it isn’t so outrageous that one would feel overwhelmed by its total ridiculousness It is captivating enough for the reader/listener to feel a part of the story. The characters are unusual but not farfetched. It has a feel of the Dark Ages, yet is feasible.
There is a lot of action and drama and violence as well, but mild in comparison to many books I have read.
The characters a developed well in a manner they are fairly easy to visualize. The background scenes are quite easily visualized as well.
This is a story of a young girl who in her early puberty is having dreams/visions of herself living in a different life. These visions/dreams feel so real. Later she learns why.
She was adopted by the midwife when her mother died at her birth. She has special skills that have become stronger with age. Her adopted mother wisely has raised her in a remote area of the midwife’s tribal lands. When in her teens, she is surprised by a man who was floating in the ocean near her home, whom she rescued. As he became better, he had to persuade her to go with him back to her homeland. Many would lie to get her to come with them because of her special gifts. Whom should she trust?… Anybody?
As she follows her instinct, she comes to believe and trust this man, so she reluctantly follows him. Will she truly be safe with him?
This is a creative tale with much action and adventure. It is mostly unpredictable. There were a few areas the story was weak in, but mostly it was well-written and connected with the reader/listener. It had a strong ending, yet left me anxious to read the next in the series.
The Title and Cover image was chosen well and depicted the story’s main points well.
I offer a strong Four Stars rating.
This book was gifted me with no pressure to post a positive review. This is my honest review.
Meet the Author:
K. E. Bonner was always the first kid to sit down during a spelling bee. It wasn’t until she was an adult that she was diagnosed with dyslexia, which explained why she always had to study three times harder than her peers. Being dyslexic taught her perseverance and kindness, her two favorite attributes. She lives in Georgia with her husband, two sons, and two dogs. When not writing, she loves to read, swim, explore new places, and meet fascinating people. If you have a dog, she would love to scratch behind its ears and tell it what a good pup it is.
