Steven Arnett's Reviews > The Skye in June

If you liked City of Redemption you will love The Skye in June!

After reading and enjoying Ahern’s City of Redemption, I was glad to read another of her books. I was not disappointed. The story focuses on the life of June MacDonald: How she comes to learn of her special gifts of prescience and being able to communicate with other worlds, and how her family finally comes to accept those special gifts. The story unfolds during a time of enormous change, beginning in Scotland in 1950 and carrying on in San Francisco during the wild times of the 1960s. The story and the characters grab you and don’t let go until you have finished the novel. Also, Ahern does a great job of evoking past times and past places. The author’s name and background are quite similar to the author’s, so the reader can’t help but wonder if some of it might be autobiographical. June Ahern is a great writer and story teller: I just wish she had written more novels!
