Since this is two books in one, I'm splitting up the review and ratings.Spoiler filled reviews for both books below.. You have been warned. Such a long review (mainly rant).Wicked - Legacy, review, 3.8 out of 5 stars.Trigger warning for rape. Nothing is shown but you know it happens.Great Kari didn’t leave after all, only to save her sorry ass. I’m glad Sasha is with Holly and her coven to go rescue Nicole and then Jer. I can’t wait for a reunion for mother and son.Where the hell does Kari get o...

Ummmm.... well that was terrible. The scene where they remove the demons from Holly was so poorly written it was honestly laughable! Just so bad.

Let me preface this review by saying that basically, this is not a good book, and I wouldn't recommend it....The premise is that there has been a centuries long feud between two families of black magic witches in which each seeks the total destruction of the other by any means necessary. Several hundred years ago the families married their heirs - Jean and Isabeau - to try to steal each others secrets. Jean and Isabeau appear to be a sort of magically bound Romeo and Juliet. They die by betrayin...

Wow. I was quite surprised how much I enjoyed these 2 books.Legacy: After the rather pointless ending of the last book I was grimacing when I opened this one. Holder's problem continues to be that she fails to put in enough detail-BUT this book is more fast-paced than the others; it requires less detail on the little things so the niggling annoyances that irritate the back of your brain are less itchy.The authors show that they are perfectly capable of writing a decent story; The Golems, The Dre...

I read Wicked 2: Legacy and Spellbound by Nancy Holder, and Debbie Viguié. This book is one of the best book’s I’ve ever read. It’s got a lot of suspense, action, fight’s, comedy, and even some history of witches even though I don’t know if it’s real or not but I believe some of it is. They change the point of view from character to character and I love when a book does that. I liked that they had a lot of characters and I usually don’t like that but the authors made it very easy to follow. The

Well if you've already decided to continue reading this series, then you're already doomed. This one was just as plagued with poor writing and editing and a mediocre plot as the first, so don't expect anything better than Wicked 1.

Holder and Viguie's "Legacy" & "Spellbound" were a nice addition to the series. Very much needed after "Wicked" and "Curse", since there was a lot of character development that was neede. I agree with some of the comments in here about the fact that there were a lot of intense scenes, I agree given that this series started out as a young adult fantasy novel, not in any way disliking it. The research gone into the aspects of the covens and pagan beliefs is explored further, but not dealt into muc...

It took me all this time to finally finished this book. I started reading a physical copy long ago, then I couldn’t continue until recently I acquired a digital copy. It’s a good story, don’t make me wrong. I will read book #5 just out of curiosity. What doesn’t make any sense to me is this... if Holly have such power that makes ppl pee and poo their pants... why she’s been so weak since the beginning? So far and after all she had lost, she still weak. The book presented her like the shit or the...

I read the edition with Books 3 and 4, and did a review of Legacy on it's page. I will also include it here.I gave Legacy 3.5 stars. It had much more story and action than the first two, and I actually wanted to pick it up during some parts. I still have no emotional connection to any of the characters and I don't understand why its taking so long for the end battle to happen. There are so many characters! It is sometimes hard to remember who people are and all the point of view switching gets d...

Complete disappointment. The strongest witch to ever live...does nothing. The entire 2 books she is weak and ineffective. Glaring mistake, I have to note, among many. Page 336 of novel 2, states Holly killed Nicole's cat Bast. All of the Hecate references and the authors couldn't remember what cat was killed🤦🏽‍♀️I'm not sure, still, why both houses have to fight and why the newer generations just don't give it up.So Nicole is pregnant with somebody's baby and is full term without it EVER being m...

The ending was a disappointment! But it's NOT the end.... so now I have to find 1 more book. I found this book a bit more confusing? Part of the team in Avalon the other in London...then POOF altogether...portal wasn't an option since magic wouldn't allow it, so how'd they got to London is not mentioned! BUT somehow when Sasha and Eli were hit....poof back in history 600 years ago, by a portal opened by Tommy & Amanda....not clear how that happened! More questions about how, when and just plain

This book was written better than the first, with fewer typoes, and fewer editing issues. The story was good and it ended well given that there is another book in the series. I dislike loose ends as this one left but there were fewer loose ends in this one than in the last one. You can see the growth of the authors as you read the series.

I really wanted to enjoy this like I did the first book in the series. There were just too many people and it jumped around time periods too much for me to follow it closely enough. I like the general idea of the story! There's a 3rd book in the series I feel like I need to read for some closure. I'm hoping that I can get into it. We'll see!

I enjoyed this whole series! I read through the series when I was 13/14 years old and can still remember a lot of details. Holly's love story with Jer was always very good to me and held my interest! I didn't find a lot of slow parts of the books, I typically kept my pace. A lot of twists and turns, but definitely a book intended for teenagers! (Which I still love)

Technically, I didn't finish the books. I mean, can you blame me? The main character (whatever her name was) got so high and mighty about her connection with that old chick from old France, and how great her magic was, and "Oh, obviously this bad guy chasing my group is definitely, only trying to kill me"Like no. Pull your head out of your ass and stop being a bitch. (She just, ooh boy, she pissed me off)Especially because she did stupid things, like kill her friggin cousin's familiar or some sh...

I ran to buy this one as son as I finished the first one. Not only do I enjoy the material of this book but I'm also elated that it is a thick book. I also feel that I'm definatly getting my money worth with the book as it is thick AND I enjoyed it. I find Holly to be a favorite character as she is corruptable, something which is lacking from most heroines and heros.
