Review
"This is a fresh, fun series."
--dorothyl.com (dorothyl.com 20041101)
"...very enjoyable novel..with interesting characters and a strong sense of humor. ..Part romance, part mystery, and all fun, the resulting novel is often downright funny while at the same time providing a very good tale."
--Kevin R. Tipple, The Blue Iris Journal (October 2004) (20041101)
"...Eye of Newt has a certain wacky charm and the story is compelling if only in its looniness and complexity."
-- Mystery Scene (December 2004) (Mystery Scene 20041101)
"Eye of Newt is hysterically funny at times, brimming with Sydney St. Charles's sometimes dry wit. The book also has a character list, which I found extremely useful, with so many people to remember.
Denise Dietz gives us a book filled with mystery, magic, and mayhem, but most of all, charming wit. Eye of Newt is a fanciful romp that should be thoroughly enjoyed and savored."

"Great characters...Highly recommended."

"Funny, sexy story..."
--DorothyL (November 2004) (dorothyl.com 20040701)
"...fans will enjoy...the Elway and the seventeenth century Salem subplots strengthen a fine who-done-it."
--The Midwest Book Review (October 2004) (The Midwest Book Review 20040701)
"This amazing concoction of self-deprecating humor, raucous familiars, and idiosyncratic family should entertain most."
--Library Journal (October 2004) (Library Journal )
"Skillfully going back and forth between the present and the past, Dietz weaves the two into a parallel story that enables Sydney to solve both the past and present murders. With a pinch of this and a dash of that, a little murder, a little greed and envy, a little love and lust, Dietz has cooked up a bewitching story that will put you under its spell."
--Murder and Mayhem (July 2004) (Murder and Mayhem )
"I can't even begin to do this wonderful book justice. All of these characters seemed so real because of how well written they are and I felt as if I'd made new friends and met some really interesting people...dialogue had me laughing out loud even when at a totally miserable doctor's appointment. I certainly hope this will be the beginning of a long running series, both about Sydney's adventures and about her 1692 relatives' adventures."
