The search for enlightenment is actually like an addiction: The drug that enslaves us is the shadow itself.
~Akron, The H.R. Giger Tarot
It takes just 395 pages to fully explore the world that Gabriel Blackstone is spelled into but only one page to want to explore it. Every time you pick this book up it will captivate you and transport you to a perfectly peaceful place to watch the serene chaos that unfolds.
There are very few books that can be placed in the same level as Season of the Witch. Those that stand on the same shelf will always hold a candle of a different colour because, although they may be written just as well, the only similarity you will find is their extreme originality.
This book is written like its supposed to be a movie. Natasha gives the reader plenty of detail to picture each scene and circumstance but does so in a way that you can't really picture yourself there. It's almost like you're a wandering spirit looking in on someone else's life.
The prologue
gives an excellent insight to how this story will unfold, writing style and all. The weight of each situation is so light you wouldn't believe the true darkness of what was happening; you feel almost anesthetized , so very relaxed. Then, no matter what is being told or described, its done in a very thorough and detailed way so as to highlight its true nature. It's because of this skill that Natasha possesses that we are able to see the beauty in the most unusual of places.Season of the Witch is a rush of emotion that takes you to a world not many have explored. It's beautiful, dangerous, informative, hindering, peaceful and exciting but more than that, it's painfully seductive and erotic. Natasha combined all these things to create the perfect hypnotizing spell.
