Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

After spending seven years as a toad Elena, the young witch, finally breaks her curse and returns to the vineyard that used to be her home only to find it to be in a total decline. A mortal man unaccustomed to magic is now the owner and the old enemy wants to buy it for himself. The vineyard needs good magic to get rid of bad spells put on it and to produce great wine again. Can Elena do it? I found the idea of vine witches taking care of vineyards very refreshing. The rest of the world building with villagers accepting different kinds of witches and their magic (rather than prosecuting them) was also quite appealing. Plot has some magic, some suspense and some romance in it. There is very little of real drastic graphic cruelty in it but be prepared for some killings, bad witches and vicious demons. And , as a cherry on the top, there is also a surprising ending . I recommend this book to everyone who likes reading fairy tales. It is a perfect escapist book with likable and not over complicated characters and interesting magic world. Great debut.
