This book is a welcome conclusion to the first, "Witch Child." In the first book, we are left at the "end" of the story of Mary, as her journal ends when she is basically charged as a Witch, which would probably mean her death. Sorceress provides all the details of Mary's life, right to her death at old age. Written in Ms. Rees' now-familiar style, it is a quick read, very very interesting not only for her instruction on the ways of the Natives peoples of the U.S., but for all the adventures that Mary encounters among them. Excellent book.

I loved the first book (Witch Child) but I wasn't as crazy about this book. I liked that in the first book much was left up to the readers interpretation, and questions were unanswered. This book felt lazier, there was less to digest. It was interesting yes, but not great. Overall, I think Celia Rees has written much better, and I suggest Witch Child or Pirates instead of this.
