About Star Of Sage & Scream:
I’d planned to spend the rest of my life in the witch military. Now I’m on my way home to a mother who disapproves of me and four sisters who barely know me. Is it possible for a witch like me to find space in a place she doesn’t belong?
I didn’t think they’d dismantle the paranormal military with a wave of their bureaucratic magic wand, but they did. Everything I’d spent the previous fifteen years of my life doing and being was ripped away from me in an instant, out of my reach.
And now that the paranormal military’s gone, I’ve got nothing left to fight for.
So I’m on my way back to Forkbridge, Florida, to the family coven of the goddess Athena, which is led by high priestess Minerva Arden. My mother’s name. The hippie witch mother I left thirteen years ago, against her explicit wishes, to join the military rather than take my place at her side.
Mother no doubt expects me to return home to claim my birthright and fulfill my destiny to the goddess Athena.
Not a chance.
Or so I think.
Because when the goddess Athena sends you a talking owl that slaps you with a divine superpower and tells you to go save someone with it, it’s really hard to say no.

My Thoughts:
I bought this book because the premise looked good. Because the cover art is beautiful. Because it is about witches. It is urban fantasy. And it has an audiobook version. I'm glad I did because it was a good read! Or a good listen. Take your pick. Or both. Anyways, this one actually has a plot for an urban fantasy! Kudos to the author!! This is also my first Leanne Leeds read and first Naomi Rose-Mock listen. And now I am a fan!
