Haunting and evocative, this reads like literary second-world fantasy. A beautiful book.

Although, I enjoyed The Traitor's Wife, I must say I liked THD more. I enjoyed the characters more and, believe it or not, it was less depressing than TW...

Originally titled, The Wolves of Andover, The Traitor's Wife is a prequel to The Heretic's Daughter. The new title is more befitting since the wolves are a minor detail throughout the story. This is the story of Martha Allen and her romance with Thomas Carrier during colonial times in the newly c...

The Traitor's Wife is not only a fantastic story, but the legend behind the story is what made me want to read it in the first place. With roots that went back to the Salem Witch Trials, Kathleen Kent pens an amazing account of how her generations before grandparents met. It is their love story and ...

That’s not to say that I didn’t like it, because I did, but I wanted to adore it because it was set in early America, which is my favorite time period and why I’m specializing in early American literature in my PhD program (tidbits about me, yay!). I was, however, a littl...

This is the story of a young girl whose mother is tried as a witch in the Salem witch trials. It was a okay book at times I had trouble sticking with it but it was interesting.

An amazing book that truly captures the madness that seized the masses during the Salem witch trials. Kathleen Kent beautifully weaves the fictional story of Sarah Carrier, (whose mother Martha is condemned as a witch), with the factual information of terror and superstition which gripped Massachus...

Boy meets girl, 17th-Century style. This is the story of how Thomas and Martha Carrier met, fell in love, and married. If you've read The Heretic's Daughter, you know they didn't quite live happily ever after, but that's twenty years down the road from The Wolves of Andover. A little brush-up on E...
