Rituals & GrimoiresGothic Tales of Dark Magic & Wizardry
Available for Pre-Order!
After her sisters disappeared, West was left alone in the service of a warlock who used her gifts to perform dark blood magic. She didn't expect a visiting vampire to betray her master, and shatter his power over her. Or to reveal that she's not alone after all—one of her sisters is still alive, and waiting for her beyond the desert.
The Warlock and the Crow (part of the Rituals & Grimoires anthology) is available for pre-order, and drops on the Spring Equinox, March 20, exclusively from Quill & Crow Publishing House. |
