This is a book I waited for, but had mixed feelings about. The story is great. The conflict with the characters is hard to come to terms with.
Alice discovers she is the most powerful witch in the county. She's Tom Ward's friend and love. The ritual that must be performed to rid the world of the "Fiend" requires a sacrifice. Alice must go to the world of the "Fiend" to collect the blade that is needed to destroy him. She learns a great deal on this journey. She also knows the price of the ritual. Is she willing to do what must be done? Is Tom willing to sacrifice the one thing he loves? Why hasn't Tom told Alice what he must do?
