The Misttorn Witches

Not the most exciting book, but a quick read and I enjoyed the characters. Amelie and Celine are sisters. Having lost both their parents, they must rely on one another to survive. They work together in the family apothecary shop and Celine pretends to be a seer on the side to earn extra money. Until she crosses the warlord prince Damek and the two sisters have to find safety among his brother Anton's court. But safety comes with a price. Celine needs to use her ‘powers' as a seer to solve a string of murders. If the sisters do not solve the murders, they have nowhere to go where Damek can't reach them. The overall plot is straight forward and predictable, but there is potential for so much more in future novels. We only begin to see the world of magic and the mystery of the Mist-Torn witches. I'm willing to read the next book to see where it leads.
