The Apothecary’s Curse (The Apothecary Series) by Barbara Barnett – Review by Shannen Kern

The Apothecary’s Curse by Barbara Barnett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book grabbed my attention simply with the unique cover, so my interest was piqued already. I hadn’t read anything by this author before, but the synopsis sounded promising which led me to dive right in. It took me a little bit of time to find my reading groove as it starts a little slower, but once it picked up, I voraciously read the entire book in one sitting. It’s evident how much research went into this magnificent story as the author expertly crafts a historical mystery with a theme of immortality throughout. The characters are absolutely astounding and relatable in this darker sci-fi read. If you are on the fence deciding whether to pick up this book or not, I highly recommend jumping in and losing yourself in a historical fantasy!
