3. Water Witch

by Connie Willis and Cynthia Felice (216 pgs)

Rating: 4

Deza is the orphaned child of a con artist. Radi is a true prince of the water witch blood although he doesn't have the power to sense water. Radi soon finds himself out of favor with his fiancee Sheria and Deza quickly becomes embroiled in the high stakes game to survive.

As far as literature goes, Water Witch is pretty low brow. It's well written, however, and the characters are intriguing. The main characters are very believable but the support characters are two dimensional and resemble mere plot devices. The story is wonderful. I couldn't put this down once I started reading it.

I recommend this book to just about anyone for a quick enjoyable read.
