I met Paula Brackston over a year ago at a book signing in my hometown of Cardiff, Wales. I only manage to travel home about once a year and only for a week. So to be in fact Bookstore at That Time, Must Have Been Because fate When I read Book of Shadows I was blown away. Now Paula's Second Book Lamp Black, Grey Wolf has left me speechless Practically. To think I would have missed out on this amazing writer if I had not have been there That Day. Well it gives me goosebumps!
Lamp Black, Grey Wolf is a wonderful tale about a modern couple who want a child and have not been able to conceive. The book follows Laura's story and how she settles into life in Wales and starts to find out more about the history the hills surrounding her new home contain. Throughout the book the story flashes back to a time long ago where Megan is following her destiny and meeting Merlin. Merlin the magician and seer who once lived in a house near Laura's.
As Both stories unfold and develop it is hard not to keep reading. My intention to read a few chapters turned into a hundred pages and then the realization did what the book going to be read in one go. I just Could not stop. Magical and spooky this is a so simple but amazingly brilliant read. This book Will certainly be one I will not forget and will definitely make it to my top ten reads this year.
If you have not tried this yet then I suggest you author do: because it is a thrilling and exciting read Which I can only describe as something similar to The Time Travellers Wife but written by someone like Kelley Armstrong. While you are adding this one to your wishlist May I also highly recommend adding Paula's debut 'Book of Shadows'. Both books are very special and unforgettable.
