Description
The Bone Witch by Rin Chupeco explores the cost of resurrection in the launch of a lyrical new fantasy series. This is a tale of scorned witches, sinister curses, and resurrection, marking the beginning of a dark fantasy trilogy that's ideal for fans of Serpent & Dove and The Cruel Prince.
When Tea accidentally resurrects her brother, Fox, from the dead, she discovers she is different from the other witches in her family. Her unique gift for necromancy earns her the title of bone witch, instilling fear and ostracisation from her community. Yet, Tea finds comfort and direction with an older, wiser bone witch, who escorts her and her brother to another realm for training.
In this new land, Tea dedicates herself to becoming an asha—one who can wield elemental magic. However, as dark forces rapidly approach, Tea must confront her challenges and make a decisive choice.
Riveting and atmospheric, The Bone Witch is perfect for readers seeking:
- Witch novels for adults and teens
- Stories with diverse representation and multicultural influences
- Dark fantasy YA books and series
- Original worldbuilding and captivating writing
