Summary
The New York Times bestselling series!

“Maximum suspense, unusual magic—a whole new, thrilling approach to fantasy!”
—Tamora Pierce, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Powerful magic. A deadly legacy. A world at the edge of war. Prepare to be spellbound by fantasy series, The Black Witch Chronicles.

Elloren Gardner is the spitting image of her grandmother, who drove back the enemy forces in the last Realm War. But while her people believe she will follow in her grandmother's footsteps and become the next Black Witch of prophecy, Elloren is devoid of power in a society that prizes magical ability above all else.

When she is granted the opportunity to pursue her dream of becoming an apothecary, Elloren joins her brothers at Verpax University. But she soon realizes that the university may be the most treacherous place of all for the granddaughter of the Black Witch.

As evil looms and the pressure to live up to her heritage builds, Elloren's best hope of survival may be among a secret band of rebels…if only she can find the courage to trust those she’s been taught to fear.

Such a good read. A good arch of the main character overcoming prejudice to see the truth. Cannot wait to read the next book.

I'm having a hard time getting through the book because of the narrator and her deep breathing after every word

I'm 40 years old and I thought this was a well written, well narrated book. I read about 3 books a week and this book caught my attention right away.

this book was better then i expected I read the reviews before reading this book and they all told me that most of everyone loved this book and then there was talk of some who didn't like the book because of it's talks about being racist and prejudiceness but honestly from reading the book myself I can assure you that it will be worth your time it is a great book it's a deep is intimate it's visual it feels like you're in a movie and best of all it's like an adult fantaskey that's also suitable for teens its really one of the best books ever
