Summary

Because of her talents and skills as a healer and keeper of powerful healing book she was easily accused of being a witch for her talent in the arts.

Theme

The Theme I chose for my book was journey and discovery. I think journey is a good theme for this book because a journey could happen when ever and where ever, in this case Ursula was forced upon a journey in order to save her life and not burn at stake. Even though she never wanted to it was this journey that shaped her life throughout the novel. If wasn't for the journey she never would have became romantic with Bruno, never would have adopted Verity, and wouldn't have ever learned from her experiences as a healer on her journey. However the journey caused the loss of her father, the death of Verity's mother and months of dangerous experiences. Another small theme for this book is discovery and how that you learn so much from the experiences you have and how they could alter your life in the blink of an eye. Ursula has discovered much about herself and the others that she has connected to in the book.

Questions

Have you ever been force to do something that you didn't want to do? If so, did this experience better you or turn out the way you expected?

Has a task ever lead you to discovering something that you were not looking for?

Have you ever convinced someone to do something for you, or with you? If so have you taken the others feelings into thought on the situation?
