Resumen del Editor

“It’s a dangerous time for a Witch.”

The scars left behind by the Blood Massacre of 1888 still run deep through the Witches of Britain a hundred and thirty-five years later. Queen Mara, who led the Witches to victory on that harrowing night, must once again face her old enemy as well as a mysterious group of rebels with seemingly no motive. Tired and ready to retire, Queen Mara wants nothing more than to pass the baton on to her only living heir...

...too bad Lumen doesn’t want to be Queen.

With only a few weeks left until she turns twenty-one and must officially claim the title of Heir to the Blood Crown, Lumen is determined to spend her last moments of freedom doing what she loves best – sneaking out to walk among mortals and getting outrageously drunk at the upcoming Samhain Ball. Fate has a different idea. As a night of debauchery drags on, Lumen is embroiled in a mystery that will rewrite history, shed light on the recent attacks on Witches, and send her on a path to discover the true culprit behind her parents’ murders.

A hundred and thirty-five years in the past, two brothers are the only reason that the ignorant Witches of Gallows End haven’t been slayed in their entirety. Though the Grave brothers’ names may never make it into the history books, that doesn’t mean they’ll be entirely forgotten.

Superb Narrator!

I really enjoyed listening to this. It's a rich and intricate story which weaves a great tale of the lives of these witches, young and old. The story gently unfolds the history that led the Witches of Gallows End to where they are now. Essentially, still fighting an enemy of old. There are rich characters and great descriptive scenes where there's no holding back! The author does a brilliant job of going into character as the various characters and definitely brings it to life!

OUTSTANDING!!!

The audiobook had me hooked from beginning to end. It was fast paced and action-packed with a wonderful cast of characters and storyline. There were twists turns, deception, betrayal and love. Lumen is a witch princess who will soon be turning twenty-one. At this point she will be named as the next queen. There is even time travel for Lumen. This is when her world as she knew it turns upside down. Narrator Jane Wing brought this book to life. I cannot wait for book 2.

enjoyed

this is a new to my author and I enjoyed this book from start to finish. I can't wait for the next book. The narration just adds to the story.

Witches and Vampires, Oh My!

Lumen is a witch on the cusp of her 21st birthday poised to begin her training to be queen. She hides from all what her witch gift is, and it gets her transported 135 years in the past. Book starts off slow, but once it picks up, it moves quickly to the end, which, of course, is a cliffhanger. Well written and the narrator was very good. Will be waiting for book 2.

I received this book for free for an honest review.

Witches, Vampires and a Mystery

The Ways of Wayward Witches is a well written book that has adventure, magic, humor, romance, and magical creatures. The first book usually just tells a story but this author builds a vivid magical world that is so descriptive that one can envision the story as it plays out. I enjoyed how the author was able to build suspense because it made me more invested and engrossed in the story and its characters.
This story has a female sassy multifaceted character named Lumen who rather she likes it or not is destined to be Queen but she has other ideas. I don't want to give spoilers but i will say this you will not be disappointed this book has everything spice, romance, time travel, and magic. I also appreciate that the author gives us well thought out backstories and not just the main story because it helps to immerse the reader into the plot. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves witches, vampires, spice, and adventure.
