Search - Taltos (Mayfair Witches, Bk 3)

Even more than the Vampire Chronicles, I fell in love with the Mayfair clan. I have all three of these books and refuse to ge rid of them, so I can read them again and again.

Fantastic read. Had to read it again before I posted it! You will enjoy this one.

I really enjoyed the first 3/4 or so of the book, then things started to drag once Rowan and Michael sat down with Ashlar. Anne Rice has a problem with getting stuck in passive storytelling.
I liked getting to know Mona better, and meeting Mary Jane, was sad at losing Aaron, but I think the author lacked in the presentation of that part of the book. If I didn't already have an attachment to him from other books, it would hardly have struck me as important. As it is, I didn't cry...
One part that did make me tear up, however, was the scene where Ashlar and Tessa dance. I've always loved Pachelbel's Canon in D, but have a totally different interpretation and visualization of the piece than the one presented in this scene. Even so, it was striking and emotionally moving. I listened to the music on my iPod as I read...wow.
Overall a good read, but needed some polishing.

this book is in excellent condition EXCEPT that my grandmother noted her name and when she read it on the inside of the front cover. She also noted whether she liked it or not, she always did this; don't know why but it's funny reading her remarks on some of them.

personally, i just didn't care for it too much.

It is the conclusion to the Mayfair Witches story. Very interesting concept. Although I thought the ending was very abrupt.

such vivid characters. you can almost feel the pain of Ash as he tells his story, and feel the love among the characters. The ending was just grand. Igreatly enjoy her books and look forward to many more great ones.
