The Witch's Lens
The Witch's Lens | Luanne G. Smith
5 posts | 4 read | 7 to read
As World War I rages, there are evils--both living and dead--that only a witch can see in a spellbinding novel by the Amazon Charts and Washington Post bestselling author of The Raven Spell. With her husband off fighting at World War I's eastern front, Petra Kurkov embraces her fleeting freedom, roaming the city at night with her camera. A born witch, she's discovered that she can capture the souls of the dead on film. Her supernatural skills don't go unnoticed by the enigmatic Josef Svoboda. He's recruiting a team of sorcerers to infiltrate the front lines, where the bloodshed of combat has resurrected foul creatures. Petra's unique abilities will be needed against the most dangerous enemies of all--those ever present, undead, and unseen. Deep in the cursed Carpathian Mountains, the ragtag team meets with an emissary of an ancient organization founded to maintain balance between worlds. Photographing the escalating horrors is beyond anything Petra imagined. So are the secrets among her fellow witches. But Petra can't turn back. Not before she discovers her husband's fate and the myriad ways her magic is manifesting. To defeat an occult foe, Petra must release the power she's been concealing for so long, or risk damning a war-torn world to ashes.

As World War I rages, there are evils-living and dead-that only a witch can see. Petra Kurkova, a born witch, has the ability to capture the dead on film. She is recruited to join a team of sorcerers headed to the frontlines, where the bloodshed has resurrected foul creatures.

Great blend of historical, fantasy, and horror. I highly recommend.

The Order of Seven Stars Book 1 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

1. Nothing special. Normal week for me.

2. Coffee. I don‘t really snack while reading.

3. Usually a bookmark.

4. Also reading Jane Eyre, Carrie, and Flashback.

Exactly what I wanted for October..a witchy tale full of magic. A ragtag team of unlikely heroes is formed to take down the undead during WW1 in the heart of Russia. I didn‘t realize this was the beginning of a series and I don‘t normally go for fantasy, but I‘ll be looking for the next book for sure!!

This was an interesting book based on the occult and set during the First World War wheee evil abounded. Effectively a witch fighting against evil. Not my usual sort of book but enjoyable.
