After finishing The Seven Sisters I longed to begin the second in Lucinda Riley’s series. It did take a while to get into as The beginning of Ally’s story felt like a rehash of the first book. I doggedly persevered and was not disappointed.
The novel picked up as soon as I reached Anna’s portion of the book. She was a unique character and enjoyed reading of her rise from obscurity. Lucinda Riley’s depictions of Norway were delicious and what I have come to expect from the author, creating a magical, vivid world all her own.
Once Ally began her search behind her ancestry I became engrossed and admired what a strong character she was. I also liked following Ally on her “detective work” and the slow connection of her ancestry leafs.
The Storm Sister can be read as a stand alone but by reading The Seven Sisters first the reader gets a greater in-depth view of Ally, Pa Salt and her sisters and is like visiting an old friend and is as if no time has past. The Storm Sister is a treat to read and an excellent edition to this inventive series.
