Jacque's Review:
Rowan is a short 30 page novella that is 1.5 in the Worldwalker series. It shows how Rowan discovered Lily in his world and the events that transpired shortly after her arrival. Rowan believed she was Lillian and couldn't understand what was wrong with her. She acted like she had no idea who he was, she was having allergic reactions to things Lillian has been able to control for years, and was basically weak and helpless. How could this possibly be the Salem Witch who has been reeking havoc on his world and family? But what other explanation could there possibly be?
Overall this was a nice addition to the story, but I don't feel like it was essential to the story line. I have already read the first two books in the series and do not feel like I was at a loss without this content, which actually took place somewhere within the first book. The back story is helpful in getting some of Rowan's perspective on the situation, but we can also get that through mind speak and the sharing of vision within this series.
I downloaded this for free to my kindle from the library, so it was well worth my time to read. It is listed for $1.99 on Amazon, which seems a bit crazy to me. Many authors release these short novellas for free, assuming readers of this content are also buying and reading the rest of their series. That is what should have happened here. Charging people for a few scenes, which were probably cut from the original book, will likely disappoint many readers. Definitely try to get this book from the library.
