Publisher's Summary

She wanted purpose. She found dark magick and war.

For Claire Emerson, there is nothing ordinary about turning sixty.

First, there are the crows. Then, a pendant that unlocks a gate to a house in the woods—which comes with a snarky gargoyle, an entirely too-sexy wolf shifter claiming to be Claire's protector, and a legacy that turns her reality upside down.

Because divorced, menopausal grandmothers with creaky hips and hot flashes? They don't just randomly discover they're next in a long line of powerful women protecting the world from the dark magick of Mages.

Claire's first instinct is to turn tail and run back to the safety of baking cookies and reading bedtime stories. But when it becomes clear the Mages have targeted her, she may have no choice but to accept her calling. There's just one problem: she never got the lifetime of training she was supposed to have, and her magick is... well, unreliable would be an understatement.

With the Mages threatening everything she loves, can Claire learn what she needs to in time to become Crone? Or will she be the one to lose an ancient war—and her life?

A great witchy read with the more mature reader in mind

I picked this up on a whim and really enjoyed it. The narrator is very well chosen and the story is interesting i spite of being a little derivative - mind you, stories with modern day witches are bound to overlap somewhat. As a more “mature” reader, I found the portrayal of a 60 yrs old protagonist relatable and funny. Her journey of discovering her power - both Magikal and personal - added depth and honestly to the storyline. I’ll be getting the next one for sure and hope Audible decides to record the rest of the series. It’s a great relaxing read in the evening with a favourite beverage, your four-legged friend(s) curled up beside you, on a cosy chair in front of a toasty fireplace.
