Deborah Harkness and All Souls series

 Hi Bookworms,

I did wrote here before that All Souls trilogy by Deborah Harkness is between my faves. Bad me cause it's series, not trilogy since Time's Convert was published :) Plus I have no idea how I could missed announcement about book 5 The Black Bird Oracle.



A discovery of Witches I read multiply times and never change my star rating for it - 5*

Shadow of Night also read many times and rated 5*

The Book of Life - another multiply re-read and 5*

In these three books we follow a witch Diana Bishop and a vampire Matthew de Clairmont, we are meeting people and creatures (witches, vampires and daemons) connected to each and both of them.



Time's convert is a story of rebirth of Marcus as Matthew's son centuries ago and process of changing of Marcus' fiancee Phoebe from human into a vampire in modern world they all living now. We can see how Diana's and Matthew's twins changing in the story's background. I gave this one 5*.



The Black Bird Oracle is giving us Proctor side of Diana's family tree. More about Becca and Pip (half-witch, half-vampire children of Diana and Matthew) and more problems with Congregation. In my opinion solid book, gave it 4.5*

Author announced a title of book 6 - The Falcon and the Rose, but nothing about cover, publication date and all other info will be announced in due time. I have my ideas about who will be this book, but I'm keeping this for me as I can be wrong LOL!

Till next post!
