The Witch's Daughter

This is a very good book, and its very intrguing, I read this and The Dark Room (a just as good read) all in one day. Really great books but I only have Blood Nightmare and after that I'm on my own, I can't believe some of the prices on the rest of the series, The Night Shifters is $70! Thats stupid and utterly ridculous! I wish these books were still in print!

I thought Blair Witch Files: The Dark Room was alot better than this book. Cade Merill barely has a part in The Witch's Daughter, which is disappointing since he is the one trying to uncover the legend. The books ending is also disappointing, resolving things easily and quickly - not as professionally as The Dark Room did - but somehow still leaving thoughts to the imagination. That said, The Witch's Daughter is a page-turner. You want to read it, you're interested in the plot and the characters are all descripted accurately, giving you a good measure of what they look like and how they feel. The best part of this book is Lee Irwin-Papert's diary, which is chilling to the bone and the most intriguing part. Cade Merill deserves a pat on the back for his great mythology work in this one, and even though - I've said it once, I'll say it again - The Dark Room is better, his first shot at the Blair Witch files is still one to be cherished.

Cade Merrill's cousin Heather Donahue was part of a student project to document a legend of the Blair Witch. After her disappearence, Cade had moved to the tiny town of Blair, Maryland to uncover the legend. He meets a young girl by the name of Lee Harper who seems to be just as interested as he in the myth. When weird and unworldly things start to happen, Cade begins to question all the information he has gathered. Is Lee really the Blair Witches Daughter? Or is she being pulled in to the abiss of the Blair Witch, and can Cade help her? I read a book from the Blair Witch Files called "The Witches Daughter." This book was very realistic in describing the events of the legend of the Blair Witch. I read another book in this seriese, and the way the author writes is amazing. Even in the dedications he is always living the myth. He dedicates his books to those who are lost or who die in the Black Forest. It really leaves you wondering weather or not this is actually fiction. I think compared to other books, this one is just as good if not better then most. The suspension in the end is very tense. The beginning starts out kind of slow, but if you hang on until the middle, then it's all worth the wait. If you are someone who loves action, horror, and suspense, and is willing to wait a little while for it, then this is definately a book for you. If you are someone whom is impatient and can't wait for action, you might have a little trouble with this one.

In this fiction/horror/action/mystery book called The Blair Witch Files : The Witches Daughter a teenager named Justin Petit went to the Springfield State Hospital in Sykesville, Maryland to visit his grandfather Harper Kemp, who had fallen down the steps in front of his house. Harper Kemp asked Justin for his help, his help to survive. His grandfather blamed his fall on something that had happened in his past. He told him the horrible story about how, when he was a boy, he and his friends at the Oak bridge Home For Boys pushed around and teased what they thought was a frail boy named Lee Irwin and the strange deaths that had happened to the bullies. Lee Irwin was different from the other boys and was very weak. So that meant that it was easy for the other boys to abuse him. Lee had a secret that they would soon find out. Justin, while in the hospital, also meet a volunteer from the hospital named Leslie Wolf. He would soon find out that Leslie played a bigger role in his grandfather Kemp's story then he ever imagined. This book gave a lot of hints about the characters and the strange occurrences that you don't realize until you've finished the book. Then it all comes together. It was packed with action and suspense with a dark quality that not many books pull off.

After his older cousin, Heather Donahue, who was like a sister to him, dissapeared not far from his home in Burkittsville, MD, Cade Merill decided to try and find out what could have happened to her. So he gathers information and evidence and from that sets up a website he calls the Blair Witch Files. He encourages people who visit the site to email him if they have an info on the Blair Witch. Now seventeen, Cade has gathered extensive info on supernatural happenings that could have been caused by the Blair Witch. This book is "written" by Cade and tells about a teenage boy name Justin who emailed Cade with his story. Justin's grandfather Harper had lived in an orphanage as a young boy. Along with his friends he tormented an orphan girl named Lee. The girl dissapeared near Burkittsville for a year before showing up at another orphange. After that, all her tormenters began to die mysteriously over the years, and now only Harper is left. He insists that Lee is still sixteen, the age she was when she dissapeared, and that she is pure evil and out to get him. Justin's research leads him to discover that Lee kept a diary that claimed she lived with the Blair Witch for a year, adopted as her daughter and endowed with supernatural powers and a thirst for revenge. This series has a "Blair Witch Project" meets "Fear Street" premise, so if you like either of those, you'd probably like this book.
