The Witch Collector

Witch Walker, Book 1

By: Charissa Weaks

Narrated by: Meg Sylvan, Tim Campbell

Every harvest moon, the Witch Collector rides into our valley and leads one of us to the home of the immortal Frost King, to remain forever.

Today is that day—Collecting Day.

But he will not come for me. I, Raina Bloodgood, have lived in this village for twenty-four years, and for all that time he has passed me by.

His mistake.

Raina Bloodgood has one desire: kill the Frost King and the Witch Collector who stole her sister. On Collecting Day, she means to exact murderous revenge, but a more sinister threat sets fire to her world. Rising from the ashes is the Collector, Alexus Thibault, the man she vowed to slay and the only person who can help save her sister.

Thrust into an age-old story of ice, fire, and ancient gods, Raina must abandon vengeance and aid the Witch Collector or let their empire—and her sister—fall into enemy hands. But the lines between good and evil blur, and Raina has more to lose than she imagined. What is she to do when the Witch Collector is no longer the villain who stole her sister, but the hero who's stealing her heart?

Kept Waiting for the Story to Start

Spoilers ahead. While listening, I kept checking how much of the book was left because I kept feeling like I was just waiting for the story to start. It was decently written and interesting, but I didn’t realize the story was them lost in the woods. I thought the story would be a greater internal conflict once she reached the king and her sister. I also think she fell to easily for mmc. It didn’t feel realistic that she’d spent so many years hating him and then a couple of conversations later she’s all in.

Book was intriguing

I thought the storyline was interesting some of the actor monologue were a little over whelming but overall good story line and good work

Wow.

If you’re a mood reader and want to get sucked into a new fantasy world, give this a listen.

Mesmerizing world building!

The main characters, Raina and Alexis, are magically endearing and I look forward to following their adventures into forever.

Great book

The book was suspenseful with descriptions like you were actually there. A recommended great read.
