In a remote Scottish village, nine-year-old Wise Child is taken in by Juniper, a healer and sorceress. Then Wise Child’s mother, Maeve, a black witch, reappears. In choosing between Maeve and Juniper, Wise Child discovers the extent of her supernatural powers—and her true loyalties.
Reviews with the most likes.
Wonderful, atmospheric fantasy, centered around the opposing figures of an evil, manipulative real mother and a wise, nurturing adoptive mother. “Wise Child” is the young girl who has to find her way between them and choose rightly, in order to unfold her powers for good. The pacing is uneven, with the ending unfortunately quite rushed, but otherwise just a wonderful world to get lost in.
