Two households of powerful witches, equal in their ruthlessness and guile, square off to take control of a highly stylized magical New York City. Bringing a self-assured, intelligent manner to this dark mixture of urban fantasy, romance, Russian folklore, and Shakespearean storytelling, narrator Ferdelle Capistrano has a fine time giving voice to the seven beautiful but cunning Antonova sisters and the three equally cunning Fedorov brothers--all of whom are well versed in the dark arts. Capistrano is at her most entertaining when she's slipping a little vocal fry and a tough but tender tone into the dialogues between the modern-day Romeos and Juliets who must risk all for their desires. Designer intoxicants, overbearing parents, betrayal, and doom. Can young love survive? B.P. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2023]
