Why read it?

1 author picked Sisters at the Edge of the World as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I enjoy historical fiction and reading about people who are completely different from me. This novel takes place in first-century Scotland, a country I love and a time period I know little about.

The characters are fascinating; one sister probably has Asperger’s and has never spoken. The other sister has always watched out for her. When the first sister meets a Roman and begins speaking, both of their lives, as well as the lives of their tribe, change forever.

I loved the characters, and I loved the ancient magical spiritualism that the tribes believed. It’s a great story.
