J.R.
is a bush pilot who drifts into small town, Haines, Alaska and signs on with the
local flying service. He’s looking for a fresh start, a new beginning, and a
place to hide from the painful past that literally haunts him day and night.
What he doesn’t realize is the local Inuit Indians believe he is the missing
piece in an ancient prophecy they have been waiting centuries to unfold. His
arrival sets in motion a series of events that risks everything for everyone,
right down to their very souls. It also brings forth a great evil and the only
one who can save them all has to draw on her long-forgotten heritage of
witchcraft.
This
is the second book in the Cabbottown Witch Novels and is a story of the eternal
struggle between good and evil with a wide range of characters from Lucifer and
his minion, to pilots, barmaids and the ladies of the Tsonokwa Lodge… and of
course, one very important Eagle-Man. But where Angela’s Coven centered on
starting over and second chances, The Great Northern Coven is a story of
letting go, moving on and taking that next step forward in our lives.
Normally
I publish my reviews on Sunday, but The
Great Northern Coven released today, so I decided to push things up a
bit. I greatly enjoyed the first of the
Cabbottown Witch novels and looked forward to reading this one. I was honored that Mr. Jenvey sent a copy to
me before his release so I would be able to read it beforehand, and it did not
disappoint.
I
wondered how he could set a book in Alaska and tie it in to the Cabbottown
coven and I even went back and skimmed Angela’s Coven to see if JR was related
to them in any way, but he wasn’t. I
forgot about magic. You’ll have to read
the book to see how that works, and whether any familiar faces show up—besides,
well… As I said, you’ll have to read the
book, which I highly recommend. Once
again, the characters are well-rounded, and the humor balances the
suspense. Even the bad guys have their
quirks, some of which will cause a few lip-twitches and maybe even a few
laughs. But again, the good guys are very good (but not prigs), and you can’t
help but feel good when you’re reading about them. Now, it’s not like the pubisher’s going to
run out of stock, but be sure to be the first on your block to read this one!

You’ll
notice I always include the publisher’s buy link. That’s because authors usually receive 40% of
the book price from the publisher.
Editors and cover artists usually receive about 5%. When you buy a book from Amazon, Barnes &
Noble or another third-party vendor, they take a hefty cut and the author,
editors and cover artists receive their cuts from what is left. So, if a book costs $5.99 at E-Book
Publisher.com and you buy from there, the author will receive about $2.40. If you buy the book at Amazon, the author
will receive about $0.83.
Downloading
the file from your computer to your Kindle is as easy as transferring any file
from your computer to a USB flash drive.
Plug the USB end of your chord into a USB port on your computer and
simply move the file from your “Downloads” box to your Kindle/Documents/Books
directory. I actually download my books
using “Save As” to a “Books” file I created on my computer that’s sorted by my
publisher, friends, and books “to review,” and then transfer them to my Kindle
from there. That way, if there’s a
glitch with my Kindle, the books are on my computer. Your author will be happy you did when he/she
sees his/her royalty statement.
Nice review!
