The New York Times bestselling series! Dark forces are on the rise in this sweeping sequel to The Black Witch by critically acclaimed author Laurie Forest. Elloren Gardner and her friends were only seeking to right a few wrongs when they rescued a Selkie and freed a military dragon. The last thing they expected was to be thrust into a realm-wide underground resistance against Gardnerian conquest. While the Resistance fights the harsh rulings of the Mage Council, Gardnerian soldiers descend upon the University…led by none other than Lukas Grey, now commander of the nearby military base. Though Elloren tries to keep him at arm’s length, Lukas is determined to tie himself to her, convinced that she’s the heir to the power of the Black Witch, a legacy that will decide the future of Erthia. As his magic calls to her, Elloren finds it more and more difficult to believe she’s truly powerless, as her uncle always claimed.

Before Christianity reached the Celtic territory, a rich landlord Dinkins had many women. The one he loved mostly was called Sophia. Sophia loved him too. One day, Dinkins saved a pretty girl named Vipy, in a wild mountain pass. Since she was homeless, Dinkins kept her living with him. They lived happily, before a Christian apostle Farley told Dinkins that he was bewitched by a monster. Farley gave him a cross and told him that it could protect him from danger. Soon, Dinkins found Vipy was in fact a werewolf under a beautiful skin. The cross though worked a little but it wasn't enough as protecting him and it revealed his unfaithfulness to their love. It rouse Vipy's wrath. As a monster, she didn't know how to win the heart of a human being so she gouged out Dinkins'; physical heart and left him dead. Sophia turned to Farley for help. Farley killed the werewolf but he could not return the life of Dinkins; only Death had the power to do it. After being humiliated and insulted by the Death, Sophia did have her husband's heart back and saved him. When Dinkins revived and was told what Farley had done for him, he donated all his property to church. For this reason, many years late, when his son Xu grew up, the family was poor and no girl wanted to marry him. At Lughnasadh (a Celtic festival), Xu met a beautiful girl. In despite of many pursuers, she loved him. Xu was exited and worried by this unmatched love but his sister warned him that the girl might be another monster like Vipy. She told him a good method to test it. At the night of Halloween, Celt used to drink whisky with pumpkin, for it was the poison of monsters; the smell could protect innocent people from them. The sister told her brother to drink it with the suspected girl at that night.

THE BLACK WITCH Though Elloren Gardner is the spitting image of her famous grandmother, the last prophesied Black Witch, she is utterly devoid of power in a society that prizes magical ability above all else. But as evil looms on the horizon and the pressure to live up to her heritage builds, Elloren’s best hope of survival may be among the most unlikely band of misfits…if only she can find the courage to trust those she’s been taught to hate and fear.
