Black Witch

Dark forces are on the rise in this gripping second book of the Black Witch Chronicles by critically acclaimed fantasy author Laurie Forest. Elloren Gardner and her friends only wanted to address some injustices when they rescued a Phoca and freed a military dragon. The last thing they expected was to become embroiled in a comprehensive underground resistance against the conquest by the Gardnerians. As the resistance fights against the strict rules of the High Council of Mages, Gardnerian soldiers storm the university, led by Lukas Grey, the commander of the nearby army base. Although Elloren tries to keep him at a distance, Lukas is determined to bind her to him. He is convinced that she is the heir to the power of the Black Witch, a legacy that will determine the future of the entire country. As his magic calls to her, Elloren finds it increasingly difficult to believe that she is truly powerless, as her uncle has always claimed.
