The Magic Of Unkindness : The Books Of Conjury, Volume One

The demons want her soul. The colony wants her hanged. No one said being a sorcerer's apprentice would be easy. Kate Finch is desperate to outrun the murderous spirits stalking her. The sixteen-year-old orphan couldn't save her family--but once she sets foot in Boston in 1736, she swears she won't lose another person in her life to a demon. When her path leads to the abandoned town of Salem, she learns that determination can only get her so far. As the demons close in on her, she finds the only person capable of explaining her plight: August Swaine, the greatest sorcerer of the age. Before long, Finch is learning magic. Sorcery. Outrunning demons for half a year, it turns out, was perfect training for surviving an apprenticeship with Swaine. But when the terrors of Salem explode out into the countryside, word of a witch spreads to all the wrong ears. Soon the authorities are on the hunt for Finch. Dragged into a political firestorm, she realizes the true threat to the colony lies in the secrets of the vanished witches. If only she can get anyone to believe her. The Magic of Unkindness is the first volume in The Books of Conjury trilogy, a sweeping tale of the supernatural set in a vibrant and magic-riddled 18th Century Boston. If you like immersive YA fantasy, a bold heroine who makes her own luck, and chilling glimpses of the supernatural, you'll love this first installment of Kevan Dale's imaginative trilogy.
