About this listen
The year is 1880. Two hundred years after the trials in Salem, witches Adelaide Thom and Eleanor St Clair finally feel safe and have opened a tea shop in Manhattan, specialising in cures, palmistry and potions.
When an enchanting young woman called Beatrice joins the witches as an apprentice, she soon proves indispensable, but her new life is marred by strange occurrences. She sees things no one else can see. She hears voices no one else can hear. Objects appear out of thin air, as if gifts from the dead. Has she been touched by magic, or is she simply losing her mind?
Amidst the witches' tug-of-war over how best to nurture her gifts, Beatrice disappears - but was it by choice or by force? In the desperate search, the witches are confronted by spectres from their own pasts. In a time when women were corseted, confined and committed for merely speaking their minds, were any of them really safe?

Story5 out of 5 stars 32
Tunuva Melim is a sister of the Priory. For fifty years, she has trained to slay wyrms – but none have appeared since the Nameless One, and the younger generation is starting to question the Priory's purpose. To the north, in the Queendom of Inys, Sabran the Ambitious has married the new King of Hróth, narrowly saving both realms from ruin. Their daughter, Glorian, trails in their shadow – exactly where she wants to be. The dragons of the East have slept for centuries. Dumai has spent her life in a Seiikinese mountain temple, trying to wake the gods from their long slumber.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 81
Olivia Prior has grown up in Merilance School for Girls, and all she has of her past is her mother’s journal—which seems to unravel into madness. Then, a letter invites Olivia to come home to Gallant. Yet when Olivia arrives, no one is expecting her. But Olivia is not about to leave the first place that feels like home; it doesn’t matter if her cousin Matthew is hostile, or if she sees half-formed ghouls haunting the hallways.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 152
"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Excellent Story!
Fantastic! However, the narrator took away from essence of the story with the voices and pronunciation of specific words. Im a big fan of Ami McKay but I really had to push through and get over the voice acting to enjoy the book. I would not listen to another audio book with this narrator.

Distracting narration
I quite enjoyed the story. Some plot holes don't get filled, though.
I would recommend reading this instead of listening to it. How I wish narrators did not feel compelled to create goofy voices for each character!! Her reading is competent, but oh! Those cartoon voices....

A nice amount of feminism
Great story! I love witch tales and this book didn't disappoint! I found the notes of women power and feminism just enough to not overpower the story line. Good characters and good performance!

Mediocre all around
The characters are very lackluster, and the plot is predictable. The narrator was quite terrible when she tried to do accents, or pretty much any of the voices.

Great story but…
Great story, very interesting and imaginative but the narrator’s voices for female characters drove me nuts and always took me out of the story because they sounded so juvenile and cartoonish for what should be the voices of adult women. This is one I wish I had bought in paper copy.

Great story, Cringy Narrator
Loved the book but found this narrator very cringy. The audience of the book is meant to be older but the way it’s narrated felt more for children.

Move the story along faster please.
Interesting story but takes too many wordy words to get anywhere. Then I realized it was book one of a trilogy…

struggled to finish
The narration was great, but the story lacked scene description, or description of characters. I prefer more sensory prompts as it makes me feel as if I'm there. This is just my preference. I felt like it was written more like a movie script than a book.
