The Wastes are growing west and the king needs a witch. Again.
CALISSA TAWNEY wants nothing to do with the Book of Mages, the one thing that killed her parents, especially not when she has a sister to take care of and a shop to run. But as talk of the Book resurfaces and the king’s witch hunter descends, once again, on the town, the canaries sing their warning song.
AAYAN ASHMORE is the Captain of the King’s Guard and the infamous “witch hunter,” has been ordered to ensure Calissa not only accepts the challenge of finding the Book of Mages, but returns with it alive. His own interests in the Book lie deep in the castle and nothing will stop him from obeying the king. Not even a stubborn witch.
The Book of Mages is the only object with the ability to stop the Wastes from destroying Kaidra, but it hasn’t been seen in decades and the quest to find it is littered with dead witches.
Their journey through the Spirit Wood is a long one and to make it back alive, they’ll need to keep their heads. Because spirits aren’t the only things that haunt the woods.
