Technically the book is very well written and well researched. I loved the history and how Katherine Howe honored and respected the real women affected by the Salem witch trials. I love Grace- I want to be more like her. I loved the collegiate aspect in this book. In the Daughters of Temperance Dane the collegiate aspect was quite overbearing and a bit stressful. This one was much more balanced. I love the information about the herbs and charms. The plot was tight and moved along quickly and was not only tight and believable. She is very understated about Connie's romance with Sam. In this book Connie felt much more committed to Sam. Finally, the magic was perfect, magic to my soul. Well-done. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent read along the lines of 'A Discovery of Witches' *by B***L on Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2011* This 2009 book is very similar in subject matter to Deborah Harkness' 2011 'A Discovery of Witches', however 'The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane' is more intimate and focused, a miniature rather than a mural, without any whiff of vampires or other supernatural beings to tip it into 'Twilight' territory.Connie, a hereditary witch who doesn't know the first thing about her own powers, is tumbled into a mystery involving her late grandmother's house in Marblehead, MA, her own doctoral thesis research at Harvard, a hunky local, and a mysterious 'physick book' that belonged to one of her ancestors, Deliverance Dane.The writing is fresh and solid, the subject matter intriguing, and as it's set in 1991 (with flashbacks to 1692 and 1715) Connie's research stumbles along from library to library without internet or cell phones to help her. Howe's descriptions of 1690's Salem and the witch trials reflect her deep knowledge of the time period without crossing the line into the look-how-much-I-researched! trap that many authors fall into.While this didn't send me into fits of reading joy like 'A Discovery of Witches' did, it's cut from the same cloth and quite well done. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and had I read it before ADoW, it might have made me just as giddy. I have to wonder if the two authors were (or are) aware of each other -- both are academics interested in similar fields, and both have produced books full of libraries, witchcraft, research and romance.My two small complaints about the story are: a)the author's attempt to write a Boston accent into her characters' dialogue, which is cumbersome and distracting, and, b) how long it occasionally takes our smart doctoral candidate heroine to make connections that the reader made instantly and get herself from point A to point B. Overall, these are small complaints, and they only slow things down in a couple of spots.As an additional point of interest, Howe is an actual descendant of two women accused of witchcraft in Salem in 1692 -- one survived her trial, the other was hung as a witch.I'm looking forward to future books from Katherine Howe. Recommended! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars From the hanging tree to the halls of academia, this historical novel is enchanting *by L***X on Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2019* There is so much to love about this book in spite of its tragic storyline about researching the lives of women descended from a woman hanged in the Salem Witch trials.First, is the title. It piqued my interest from the moment I read it. Next comes the list of characters. Each is intriguing in his or her own right, and especially as their bloodline is traced and the importance of their names in succession is revealed. Third, the plot line held my interest, as did the descriptions of the libraries and their old books, the hidden house with its almost sentient garden, and the magical little dog that appears and disappears unnoticed.Finally, that the storyline is set amidst the rigorous and often frantic halls of academia and scholarly research is a unique and brilliant touch.I’ve read many fiction and non-fiction books centered around the Salem Witch trials, and this is definitely among the top 10. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/13216065-the-physick-book-of-deliverance-dane](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/13216065-the-physick-book-of-deliverance-dane) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
