Book Review: Witchling by Seattle Author Yasmine Galenorn

by Kyla Myers

Witchling.jpgI was browsing through the Seattle Mystery Bookstore a few weeks ago and mentioned to the cashier that I enjoy reading local authors. Spotting a Charlaine Harris’ vampire book in my hands, she quickly directed me to local author, Yasmine Galenorn and her Sisters of the Moon series.

I was delighted to find that the books are not only written by a local author but they also take place in Seattle. It’s always fun to read a book that is set in an area you’re familiar with, isn’t it? That is one of several reasons that I love Dick Francis. His books take place in an area of England where I grew up.

The Sisters of the Moon series revolves around the three D’Artigo sisters. The sisters are part Faerie and part human, one a werekitty, one a vampire and one a witch. The three sisters have been sent Earthside as Otherworld Intelligence operatives to “keep an eye on things”. As generally happens in a mystery, a murder occurs, and the sisters must figure out what’s going on and solve the murders on their own. The Faerie Realm is having problems of it’s own and has no time to help them.

The book was a bit reminiscent of Laurell K Hamilton without being nearly as sexual. If you like Charlaine Harris and you’re looking for a light read with some fun characters, this book would definitely meet that criteria.
