PHOEBE WHO?

A battle's finale, one sister lost --

Enemies disguised as friends,

aim to cross.

Two sisters must remind her what she can't recall:

To bring her home safely and restore power to all.

Phoebe is exhausted -- between work, demon fighting, and helping her sisters, she has no time for herself. When she wakes from a battle not knowing who or where she is, Phoebe gets her long-awaited getaway and then some. A stranger named Aura promptly finds her and takes Phoebe into her care. There's something off about Aura and her friends, but Phoebe ignores her instinct and tries to settle into this new, relaxed lifestyle.

Meanwhile, Piper and Paige fear the worst. They scry for Phoebe, but she is nowhere to be found. Not only have Aura and her friends put a cloaking spell on Phoebe, but they have also reintroduced her to magic, taking her on "missions" to steal protection charms from good witches. Their latest mission? Convincing Phoebe that Piper and Paige are evil and need to be rendered powerless. Will Piper and Paige be able to find Phoebe -- and help her find herself -- in time to restore the Power of Three?

4.0 out of 5 stars Forget Me Not, January 1, 2007

By 

Elizabeth Scully (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Phoebe Who? (Charmed) (Mass Market Paperback)

Emma Harrison, author of Garden of Evil, Something Wiccan This Way Comes, A Tale of Two Pipers, and The Queen's Curse, delivers yet another satisfying Charmed adventure.
In Phoebe Who?, an overworked Phoebe is hit by a powerful memory spell. She wakes up in an alley with no memory of her name, past, or Charmed existence. Aura, an ambitious, power-hungry witch, convinces Phoebe that she is really her friend Ruth. "Ruth" accepts the hospitality of Aura and her friends, even using her power of premonition to help Aura find powerful amulets and take them from "evil" witches. When Ruth receives a premonition of the remaining Charmed Ones killing her friends, she resolves to do whatever she can to protect them--even if it means attacking Piper and Paige. Meanwhile, back at the Manor, Piper and Paige have their hands full with demons only the Power of Three can vanquish and a house full of magical creatures lined up for counseling sessions with the missing Phoebe.
Aura and her friends are craftier and more interesting than the average evil threat, and Piper and Paige's concern for Phoebe and pain at her betrayal is well done. For viewers mourning the television series, Phoebe Who? will ease the loss.

This review is from: Phoebe Who? (Charmed) (Mass Market Paperback)

Includes when Piper and Paige are fighting over Paige wanting to be independent with her temp jobs. Piper actually told Paige that she was degressing back to when Paige first found her 1/2 sisters. Total
season six moments between the two half sisters in this book. Phoebe is wonderfully funny at the end of chapter eleven. Expect a lot of magical friends to show up at the manor.

I must say that this is another great Charmed Novel and another one to add to my ever growing faviote list.Phoebe Who? (Charmed) I will willing and totally recommand this book to any and all Charmed fan out there.

4.0 out of 5 stars Power of Three vs Power of Four, January 31, 2007

This review is from: Phoebe Who? (Charmed) (Mass Market Paperback)

The Charmed Ones and the Power of Three comes under attack when the sisters try to fight off a bunch of replicating demons. When the dust clears, Phoebe is missing. Phoebe has been knocked out and moved. When she awakes she has no memory prior to waking up. Not even knowing who she is, she is relieved when one of her roommates spots her and takes her home. She also learns that her name is Ruth. Ruth is told that she and her roommates are good witches and that they are fighting evil witches. The idea is to get certain powerful amulets away from the evil witches before they use them for evil. Although Ruth has no memory of any of this, she helps out by using her powers to locate the rest of the amulets.

Meanwhile back at Halliwell Manor, the two remaining Charmed Ones and Whitelighter Leo are unable to locate Phoebe. They can tell that she is alive but not where she is. Then the house is filled with members of the magical community (leprechauns, fairies, etc.) who have come to Phoebe for advice. But Phoebe isn't there and they are not pleased. Also, the replicating demons return. To defeat the demons, the sisters will need the Power of Three and that means locating Phoebe. Then Paige spots Phoebe and learns that Phoebe thinks she is someone else. Now with a little to go on Piper and Paige go on the warpath to get their sister back. If they succeed then they will have to take care of the demons and the magical community.

This was certainly better than the last Charmed book (HOUSE OF SHARDS) but it is not the best. For the most part the characters were written in character and the plotting was typical of the series. Certainly fun but nothing to write home about. A must read for Charmed fans. Check it out.
