Eye of the Witch 2 is a great read for those cold, dark days when you want to snuggle up with a good book. Lately I have been reading a variety of books – different writing styles and subject matter. I am finding a lot to enjoy in making random choices. There are so many authors our there with good books that seem to get lost in the mass marketing of a handful of authors. It’s too bad because as readers we are missing some really good books.I enjoyed this one immensely. The characters were fun and connected in quirky ways that kept you interested. Lilith adds a lot of fun to the story as a practicing witch. The author adds to the story with practices and traditions of a witch, both factual and fiction. Tony’s connection to Lilith leads to an interesting, and surprising end to the book. And the murderer will surprise you. Maybe for some readers having Tony come out of retirement to assist with a case was not realistic enough, but in fiction I don’t look for too much factual detail. I look for a good story to pass my time and escape real life for a while. If I want to learn something there are plenty of non-fiction books available to study and research. I look forward to reading more books by Dana Donovan.

EYE of the WITCH Book 2 Detective Marcella Witch Series eBook Dana E Donovan Reviews
I gave it 5 stars because I finished reading it in less than 48 hours! That's my truest test of how good a book really is. It moved fast, had some good witty banter and some great moments of realistically, self deprecating humour, at one point I even found myself breaking out in laughter. The story line had so many twists and turns with viable suspects and motives that I was constantly rethinking my guesses right along with the characters in the book. I haven't read the series or even heard of the author before this. To read and enjoy such works of fiction, you have to be able to let yourself be drawn into the story and once there just go with it. Historical correctness and realistic time lines aren't always necessary to enjoy a book not meant to educate but merely to be enjoyed. As to the most helpful critical review just know that the issues mentioned didn't have an impact at all on the story line here. Sometimes as a reader of fiction you have to be able to go with the flow, fill in a few of the blanks with your own imagination and just sit back and enjoy a good read. I can't ask for more than that. I suppose if you are looking for a book with more literary impact you could always read Mark Twain or perhaps The Bible. But as for a really good weekend read - this gets my vote!
Second book in the Detective Marcella series, was a free offer and the first book in the series that I read. I actually enjoyed so much, I bought the first and third books in the series--which is saying something as I'm so frugal in spending. Dana Donovan did an outstanding job, fleshing out the characters, creating idiosyncrasies that make a character. Time and again, characters pop to life, settings are created without the tedium or monotony that so many writers get caught up in. Details matter, so does brevity, Dana manages to do both with such aplomb that you don't realize hours have swum by in the meantime.
Detective Marcella has flaws like everyone and Dana manages to create a character that continually reexamines his own life he has led. The other character in the main storyline, is the witch who he is bewitched by. They have a deep connection that comes clear by book three, but in book two they are intertwined in the current murder mystery so interconnected by other characters, especially one with paranormal abilities.
Once you realize you must bypass reality a bit, the storyline becomes more interesting by the line. Dana has done an outstanding job. I would give 4 1/2 stars.
Honestly, I wasn't quite sure how I felt about this book. I liked the idea that a retired cop could still do so much, and I did enjoy the touch of the occult that went into this novel, but after that the rest of my review will be a little muddled. Granted, I came into this book before reading book 1, and so some of the connections seemed a little far-stretched to me, but there are definitely a few things that I liked and disliked about this particular novel.
The conversations and relationships between the characters seemed strained, and maybe even a little fake. There were some things within the novel about solving the case that just seemed to be too easy, even with the aspect of the occult thrown in.
I did like, however, the story itself. The characters were interesting, and they each had their own quirks and strengths, which I liked. I enjoyed the way the author could visualize for me each character he wrote for.
WARNING! The author is using the oldest trick in the book " c'mon, try it. Everybody else likes it. First one's freeeeee."
Worked on me )
Eye of the Witch is a solid whodunnit.
There are a lot of people killing themselves lately. And they all have some connection to a paranormal abilities research study...
The story develops around an investigator who is a good bit older than most of the other people in the book. Interestingly, he is willing to consider new ideas not because he is a dewy eyed romantic, but rather because he has been around the block and seen a lot of crazy @#$! go down. This makes for an interesting protagonist.
You will not guess who the killer is until the very end, even though the author lays out plenty of clues along the way.
That, together with the obvious research in and respect for modern day 'witches', added a great deal to my enjoyment of the story.
But, be warned. You WILL go back and buy the first book in the series. )
