The Hotel Witch by Jessica Miller Pdf

Sometimes the simplest spells are the most powerful. Sibyl is the apprentice hotel witch at the splendid Grand Mirror Hotel. She is busy each day drawing useful spell patterns to keep the hotel guests happy: spells to shine shoes, spells to remove dust and spells to return lost belongings like hats and gloves to their owners. But Sibyl dreams of other possibilities – wonderful possibilities like her mother returning from the Black Mountains, and like Grandma letting her draw spell patterns from the Book of Advanced and Dangerous Magic. When Grandma gets stuck in last Tuesday, somewhere on the hotel’s thirteenth floor, Sibyl is left to take charge of all the hotel magic – and to solve a mysterious and perplexing problem. Can she find a way to open the Book of Advanced and Dangerous Magic? And will it contain the spell she needs? The Hotel Witch is a magical tale of courage, love and the power of imagining possibilities. Jessica Miller is a children’s writer from Brisbane, currently living in London. Her first novel, Elizabeth and Zenobia, was shortlisted for the Text Prize and the Readings Prize and was a CBCA Notable Book, as was her second book, The Republic of Birds. ‘A truly spellbinding tale...from a magnificently talented author that is sure to delight any reader who loves getting lost in magical landscapes full of wonder, adventure and enchantment.’ Children’s Book Council of Australia on The Republic of Birds ‘This atmospheric middle grade fantasy contains many of my favourite things: folk tales, sentient animals, maps, unmastered magical powers, challenging family members and a slightly surly child heroine.’ Leanne Hall on The Republic of Birds

After the wild time the gang had in "The Zeros and The Man Who Could Not Die," it's pretty understandable that the guys need a vacation. Where do they go? No, not the Jersey shore. What's better than the Jersey shore? Obviously the Delaware beaches (cue Delaware joke). Everything is hunky dory until the crew learns that children are disappearing, and a trail of breadcrumbs is leading towards a shadowy witches' coven that would rather conduct their business unnoticed. New friendships are forged, old ones are tested, and a few familiar scoundrels may just make an appearance before the Zeros figure out what's rotten in the state of Delaware…

The Witching Hour by Anne Rice Pdf

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the beloved author of the Vampire Chronicles, the first installation of her spellbinding Mayfair Chronicles—the inspiration for the hit television series! “Extraordinary . . . Anne Rice offers more than just a story; she creates myth.”—The Washington Post Book World Rowan Mayfair, a beautiful woman, a brilliant practitioner of neurosurgery—aware that she has special powers but unaware that she comes from an ancient line of witches—finds the drowned body of a man off the coast of California and brings him to life. He is Michael Curry, who was born in New Orleans and orphaned in childhood by fire on Christmas Eve, who pulled himself up from poverty, and who now, in his brief interval of death, has acquired a sensory power that mystifies and frightens him. As these two, fiercely drawn to each other, fall in love and—in passionate alliance—set out to solve the mystery of her past and his unwelcome gift, an intricate tale of evil unfolds. Moving through time from today’s New Orleans and San Francisco to long-ago Amsterdam and a château in the Louis XIV’s France, and from the coffee plantations of Port au Prince, where the great Mayfair fortune is made and the legacy of their dark power is almost destroyed, to Civil War New Orleans, The Witching Hour is a luminous, deeply enchanting novel. The magic of the Mayfairs continues: THE WITCHING HOUR • LASHER • TALTOS

Witch's Shadow by Emma L. Adams Pdf

No rest for the wicked… or the dead. I'm Jas Lyons, and as far as anyone knows, I'm nothing more than a novice necromancer who banishes the dead for a living. I might be the last surviving member of the notorious Hemlock Coven, but I've never been able to cast a spell in my life. If my secret goes public, I'll become a target for my coven's enemies, so it's safer to lie low. When an attempt on my life awakens the dormant spirit of the last Hemlock witch, bound to me through a deadly ritual, my cover is blown. If I want to survive the horde of enemies hunting me down, I need to learn to use her magic, but the spirit has no interest in sharing. Worse, binding a ghost to a living person is forbidden by the supernatural council, on pain of (permanent) death. To get my own life back, I'm forced to ally with a rogue vampire who might be the only person who can help exorcise the spirit before she gets us both killed. If he discovers my secrets, the Hemlocks' enemies will be the least of my problems -- but even in death, the Hemlock witches have an agenda of their own. And if I betray them, they'll ensure I pay the price. I trained to banish the dead, but if I'm not careful, I'll end up joining them… Keywords: urban fantasy, magic, ghost mystery, contemporary fantasy, urban fantasy series, British fantasy, Scotland, complete fantasy series, vampire fantasy, female protagonist urban fantasy, witch, dark magic, ghosts, post-apocalyptic fantasy, psychics, paranormal thriller, supernatural suspense, urban fantasy mage, necromancer, afterlife, action urban fantasy, paranormal fantasy, shifters, myths and legends, witch thriller

Tales of a Witch by Kim Richardson Pdf

Landing in jail was not how I expected to spend the rest of the night. Nope. I had imagined some horizontal mambo with a certain uber-hot giant. Instead, I find myself stuck in a ten-by-ten cell, hungry and with a serious need to pee every hour, with only the cold stone walls and the occasional cockroach as my companions. I’m trapped in the bowels of the Gray Council building. And I don’t know if I’ll ever get out. So when Darius—a.k.a Gray Council silver-haired dumbass—pays me a visit and offers me the choice to either rot in my cell forever or take on a job for him, I take it like a shot. In exchange for my freedom, I’m sent on a task to find a jewel, the Jewel of the Sun. Sounds simple enough. Right? Wrong. Adding to my problems, someone is watching me from the shadows, causing all my warning flags to sail as though in a thunderstorm. I’m not getting any paranormal vibes. Not vampires, weres, fae, nothing. Not even witch. But I know this person is bad news. As though that isn’t bad enough, if I don’t find the jewel in time, I could lose everything… Tales of a Witch is perfect for fans of urban fantasy, mystery, slow-burn romance, and humor. Get ready for this heart-pounding and laugh-out-loud magical adventure!

A Season with the Witch: The Magic and Mayhem of Halloween in Salem, Massachusetts by J. W. Ocker Pdf

Edgar Award-winning travel writer spends an autumn living in one of America's spookiest tourist destinations: Salem, Massachusetts Salem, Massachusetts, may be the strangest city on the planet. A single event in its 400 years of history—the Salem Witch Trials of 1692—transformed it into the Capital of Creepy in America. But Salem is a seasonal town—and its season happens to be Halloween. Every October, this small city of 40,000 swells to close to half a million as witches, goblins, ghouls, and ghosts (and their admirers) descend on Essex Street. For the fall of 2015, occult enthusiast and Edgar Award–winning writer J.W. Ocker moved his family of four to downtown Salem to experience firsthand a season with the witch, visiting all of its historical sites and macabre attractions. In between, he interviews its leaders and citizens, its entrepreneurs and visitors, its street performers and Wiccans, its psychics and critics, creating a picture of this unique place and the people who revel in, or merely weather, its witchiness.
