review 1: This was well thought out. The characters well described and you could sympathize for them or whatever emotion was supposed to be provoked. The story flowed well. I guess all in all it just was not for me. It was fine as a stand a lone book and with a few more chapters I felt could have been wrapped up completely but I see this will become a series and well I just wasn't that taken that I would want to read more and more about these characters. The author is talented though and I feel could use it in other areas if explored.
review 2: Thea Atkinson’s Water Witch is an adventure in magical creativity. The story’s base places the reader in the midst of a world overrun by power hungry leaders and supernatural conquests. Delight envelops the reader as ea... morech moves further into the Alaysha’s world where ruling powers will do anything to control her and her powers. The plot is well developed and interesting, holding the reader’s interest with no effort. Atkinson has created a new spin on the standard hero’s quest, rich with vibrant landscape and characters. Readers are caught in the middle of warring factions with Alaysha, whose solitude goes deeper than anyone dares to imagine. Alaysha, the title character, is strong willed, beautiful, and powerful; but has no idea how much power she truly wields; of course, neither does anyone else. The other characters, most of them male, are just as vivid and well written. Most of the other female characters in the novel are young and all but powerless. It seems that the young and powerless characters reflect Alaysha’s feelings of being powerless to control her own life, or her powers. I enjoyed each page of this tale, until the end. While I know the author has obviously left room for the sequel novels, I found the endpoint chosen to be off-kilter. It may be my aversion to Hitchcockesque endings, where one is left with more questions than answers, but the simple truth is- I wanted more, and not to have to wait for more. But then, I guess that’s what all authors wish to see in their readers, isn’t it. less
