Morgan’s tale begins in 1821 with a powerful witch named Ursule, whose second sight leads the rest of her clan to a place of safety called Orchard Farm in Cornwall. But Louisa Morgan has combined all three genres into a fascinating and far-reaching tale of a family of witches, a line that has been handed down through the generations from mother to daughter. I’ve always loved multi-generational stories, although I usually associate them with historical and literary fiction, not fantasy. The nitty-gritty: A multi-generational saga of a family of witches, with plenty of drama, familiars, and just a touch of magic.
