Life in the coven is always busy. From putting out fires (both literal and figurative), engaging with other member races of Other society, and showing she is one bad witch who’s not to be trifled with, Amber’s got her hands full to be sure. She takes it all in stride though, a model of female strength and rock-solid willpower that has earned the respect of the races throughout the Other. For the past six months, Amber has been working on a potion to extend the “human side” of the Other’s (vampires, werewolves, witches, etc.) time available before needing to port over to the Common for a recharge. This research has tremendous possibilities associated with it, including possibly beginning to ease the tensions between the Creature and Human sides of Other society. Like all research, however, the time for slow tinkering has come to an end and the time for full focus has begun. Amber DeLea knows she can’t balance this and her duties as Coven Mother at all, so she’s applied for a temporary Coven Mother substitute with the Witch’s Council.
After another surprise visit from The Crone (a woman who had a very involved hand in raising her but whose position now dictates a different kind of interpersonal relationship with Amber), it is revealed that someone/s may be targeting Amber while she’s focusing on her research. To that end, the griffins have been tapped to provide extra security for Amber through this dangerous time; despite the Crone knowing full well how Amber feels about griffons, especially after one had carried out a contract on Jake, the man she’d loved secretly for years (see “Glimmer of Death”).
Bastion is one of, if not the, deadliest assassins in the world and has been hanging around Amber’s periphery for quite some time. But now, he’s been tasked with keeping her alive through this threat to her life. Bastion, who’d been the assassin who completed the contract against Jake. And now Amber needs to remove the Black curse on Bastion before he’ll officially start keeping her from an early grave. That’s going to foil her plan to watch him die slowly from the curse without getting her hands dirty… damn. No way that’ll happen! Never!
But to deny the Other’s “human side” this opportunity? To deny the DeLea name a chance at eternal glory? To skyrocket her chances for a spot on the council that she so dearly wants? Guess it’s time to undo a curse…
Brilliant, well-written, engaging, and fun, this first novel of “The Other Witch” saga FINALLY brings fans of “The Other Realm” novels something they’ve been begging for for ages, an Amber Delea standalone series in gorgeous audio! Beautifully narrated, engaging, and something that simply cannot be put down/put on pause, this book is a must-listen for any Urban Fantasy reader! Enjoy!
