Sharon's Thoughts
As a HUGE lover of Patti Robert's
work I was thrilled when she announced she was releasing her "TV series"
length books - The Witchwood Estate Series.
As anybody who regularly reads my
reviews knows, I am a lover of all things paranormal; vampires,
shifters, angels, you name it' I've probably read it. But I must admit I
haven't read a lot paranormal containing witches, so was really
quite excited when Patti said this was the basis of her new series. Now before you start thinking OK a story about witches; this is no 'Charmed' or 'Merlin'.
The first book in the series; Going Home, introduces us to our heroine Alexandria, as she is getting ready
to go home to Witchwood Estate to claim her inheritance. We meet Olly
and Martha Barnaby her loving but rather curious guardians, and then go
with Alexandria on the first leg of her journey home.
What makes Patti's work so easy to
read is that her stories have an emotion, spirit, and energy that draws
you into the story and you are propelled along with them.
With each story only the length of a
standard TV mini-series or show, it is quite easy to read in one
sitting, and then, like any other favourite TV show, you have to
wait with baited breath till the next exciting episode.

Fantastic Ride into the Magick Realm...and Home.
By Leslie Hansford Format:Kindle Edition
This story pulls you in and makes you smile when the character does;
feel anxious about impending danger, and cringe at the evil the dark
characters manifest. Rooting for our Alexandria from the first page.
This promises to be a great series. I
just love Patti's work. Without trying you are transported and become
an invisible observer right in the story. She also makes you feel like
you want to be close to her main characters. I will devour this series.
Perfect-length installments for the read-a-holic. I will be
recommending this series to everyone who has hope, who is adventurous,
and has an open mind to fantasy. Patti Roberts does it again!

This review is from: Witchwood Estate - Going Home (Kindle Edition)
First off for those of you who are already Patti Roberts fans of her
Paradox series, you will know she is a spectacularly imaginative and
beautiful author. Where some folks books read like solid dependable
working boots, hers read like the gentle and delicate lace adorning your
grandmothers couches. They are full of spirit and grace. Each of these
types of styles are fine, and I enjoy both. What sets Patti's into this
category is her grace and energy. She truly is a joy to read, and to
know. I was thrilled to see her releasing something that I adore, short
stories, and to make it better, they were to be part of a whole series.
This book really left me wanting more. I could not believe
how it grabbed me from the start. Alexandria had my attention and I
wanted to know more about her. My interest was peeked when she got on
the bus. I was on edge with the bus ride never knowing what was going to
happen next. I loved the storyline and when the book ended, I tried to
turn the page just to see if it was more. I can't wait for the next book
to come out. This is a goodread!
Tabitha Ormiston-Smith's review
This short section is a very tantalising look into what
promises to be a wonderful book. It has the smoothly competent writing
that we've come to expect from Ms Roberts, but the tone of this book is
lighter and more humourous than that of the Paradox series. I am very
much looking forward to reading the whole book.
Book 2 in the Witchwood Series - Ferntree Falls.
