Book Review: Witch Eyes
Braden’s witch eyes give him an enormous power. A mere look causes a kaleidoscopic explosion of emotions, memories, darkness, and magic. But this rare gift is also his biggest curse.
Compelled to learn about his shadowed past and the family he never knew, Braden is drawn to the city of Belle Dam, where he is soon caught between two feuding witch dynasties. Sworn rivals Catherine Lansing and Jason Thorpe will use anything—lies, manipulation, illusion, and even murder—to seize control of Braden’s powers. To stop an ancient evil from destroying the town, Braden must master his gift, even through the shocking discovery that Jason is his father. While his feelings for an enigmatic boy named Trey grow deeper, Braden realizes a terrible truth: Trey is Catherine Lansing’s son . . . and Braden may be destined to kill him.
Witch Eyes by Scott Tracey is up for review today.
I read this book a few weeks ago, but I've been reluctant to put up a review because I wasn't quite sure how to put my thoughts together. Witch Eyes was a quick read, with simple straightforward storytelling and great characters.
Braden, our main character, actually surprised me quite a bit over the course of this book. I was immediately drawn to him because of his voice and attitude. I liked Braden because he felt real to me. Braden wqasn't perfect-- there were times where I felt he was a little passive, which really irritates me in a character. But Braden pulled through, becoming a character I could really like and root for.
Trey was also a great character, and a fabulous love interest. He shows up just at the edges of Braden's
