Looking for a good book? Warrior Witch brings about the conclusion of the Malediction Trilogy by Danielle L. Go read the first book and enjoy, and then stop there. I wish I could have liked this book, and I had some high expectations, but it followed the only path that had been set up for it, and sadly that just wasn't a path worth taking.

I was really hoping to get back to something beautiful and lyrical as we had in the first book, but the second volume set the reader (and the author) up with a story that needed to proceed, but it wasn't anything as wonderful as that 'Beauty and the Beast' story we initially had. The strong and memorable (from the first volume) Cécile is mostly just kind of whiny and Tristan isn't much better. We spend most of this book with characters wanting to get something done, but not actually doing anything about it. This is all a great and exciting premise but. Though it should be clear and obvious, Tristan is still trying to prove that he is the rightful heir to rule Trollus, while Cécile is still trying to bring Trollus and the human world together.

Tristan and Cécile are still fighting to save both humans and trolls from the evil that has fallen over everything and they must also fight to stop everything that they themselves have set in motion. (If you are on my blog, then you can do a quick search and peek at my reviews of those books.) Warrior Witch, unfortunately, follows more closely in the steps of its immediate predecessor, rather than the more successful first volume. The series started off quite nicely with Stolen Songbird, but the follow-up, Hidden Huntress, lost the magic that made Songbird a success. She begins to make friends.Warrior Witch concludes the Malediction Trilogy and I. But something unexpected happens while she's waiting - she begins to fall for the enigmatic troll prince to whom she has been bonded and married. She will have to bide her time, wait for the perfect opportunity. Only the trolls are clever, fast, and inhumanly strong. C cile has only one thing on her mind after she is brought to Trollus: escape. But a prophesy has been spoken of a union with the power to set the trolls free, and when C cile de Troyes is kidnapped and taken beneath the mountain, she learns there is far more to the myth of the trolls than she could have imagined. Time enough for their dark and nefarious magic to fade from human memory and into myth. For five centuries, a witch's curse has bound the trolls to their city beneath the ruins of Forsaken Mountain.
