Gr 9 Up-Unrest brews across the Witchlands in this third installment of Dennard's popular fantasy series. As a Bloodwitch and a Carawen monk, Aeduan excells at earning coin for his father, the Raider King. That used to be enough for him, but after growing closer to the enigmatic Threadwitch Iseult, Aeduan must choose: continue as a tool for his father or commit to a different life with different loyalties. Aeduan and Iseult are desperate to reunite Owl, a young and powerful Earthwitch, with her family. Across the Witchlands, Safi begins to understand the consequences of her Truthwitchery and her bargain to help Vaness, the Marstoki empress, clear her royal court of corruption. Meanwhile in Nubrevna, Vivia struggles to be the queen her country needs rather than the ineffectual ruler her ailing father and royal council expect. Cinematic prose and high action propel this story and its characters forward, pushing them to their limits and sometimes beyond, as the Witchlands move closer to a war in which each character will have their own role to play. This book expands the cast and confirms theories about the Cahr Awen, the Paladins, and especially Aeduan's own role in the conflict to come. VERDICT A solid continuation in a series that gets better with each installment, and a strong choice for libraries where high fantasy is popular.-Emma Carbone, Brooklyn Public Library "The Witchlands series is back with higher stakes, new tricks and a deeper dive into this already epic world. Readers are in for a treat as more of the world is explored and Dennard continues to dazzle with nonstop action, beautifully crafted characterization and stunning prose. Fantasy at its best as the last page leaves your adrenaline pumping, heart broken and a yearning for more!"―Katie Stutz, Anderson's"It's hard to find a book in which I can't wait to read every character perspective, but with these characters -- each connected by threads of friendship, love, and loyalty -- I couldn't wait to see what would happen next! Placed in Dennard's stunning world and amidst her compelling plot, they had my heart racing and oozing emotions! Bloodwitch is the best Witchlands book yet!"―Meghan Vanderlee, Schuler's"Brace yourselves for this heart pounding, gut wrenching, spellbinding third installment to the Witchlands.

Sightwitch (illustrated novella)
This series gets better with every book, Bloodwitch was amazing! Amazon doesn't link them, but there is book 2.5 - Sightwitch which is so amazing! Don't miss it!Iwill show up to your house and read every one of these out loud to you just so I can relive the joy of the first read.Some spoilers and stuff below if you're not familiar with the Witchlands Series, but if you've read Truthwich, Windwitch, and Sightwitch, this shouldn't give away too much into Bloodwitch. If you haven't read Truthwitch, Windwitch, or Sightwitch.... what's wrong with you? Get those books off your TBR and let them seep into your brain and infect your soul.Coming off of the perfect setup from Windwitch, we enter Bloodwitch knowing all our players, where they stand, what they want, and where they need to go. Then, as we all expect and hope for in an epic fantasy, Susan Dennard breaks everything .Chapter by chapter, we rotate between all our favorites. There are poisoned arrows, exploding buildings, horses racing through forests, and trebuchets launching seafire. Mountain bats hover, hiss, and fly. Monks betray monks. Monks betray their vows. Hell, everyone breaks a promise at some point! Interrogations, sacrifices, hard choices and thread families knit together and come apart at the seams. This book has deaths, near deaths, minor injuries, and near-misses. Truths and lies and everything in between! There is no rest at the end of the 20-year truce and the entire Witchlands wobbles towards war.Coming into the last 6 chapters, my favorite of the series was still Sightwitch which deftly weaves a dual narrative that brings the past and present together. And Bloodwitch is made 1000 times more enjoyable having read Sightwitch. But then chapter 55.... oh boy. And then chapter 56... momentum building. Susan hits us hard in chapters 57, 58, and 59. Oh my lord! 59! And then we settle into a stunned plateau to marvel at what was given to us. When I think about all that came together in the last six chapters, after all 54 amazing chapters before them, I just stand back and clap.Susan Dennard has delivered a truly marvelous addition to her Witchlands series. One that will forever have a place on my shelf and, probably, a near annual re-read.
