I am so excited about the upcoming launch of Witch of Ware Woods, Sonja F. Blanco‘s debut novel. Its summary sounds very promising and I cannot wait to discover this new magical world!
I’m happy to announce that I will be publishing my review soon, seeing that I will be receiving an Advance Reader Copy <3 Thanks already, Sonja!
Update: My review of part 1 is now available!
In order to help with the count down, subscribers to her newsletter can already read the prequel to this new series, Flood & Fire. I just finished this eBook novella and I have to say: now I’m even more looking forward to reading book 1!
Witch of Ware Woods: Flood & Fire
As I mentioned above, Flood & Fire is the prequel to the series. It tells the story of Ann, a young witch who lives in Ware Woods, with her mother and several non-magical families. Outside of these woods, danger lurks everywhere. Other “normals” (= non-magical people) do not trust witchcraft and the magistrate of a nearby village is not planning to suffer a witch to live. Driven by existential questions, Ann accidently sets in motion a chain of events that might very well change her world…
I really enjoyed this novella! It has everything I look for in a story: magic, humour, adventure…It sets the scene nicely for the first novel and I’m eager to discover more about these sacred woods and the witches that roam in them!

Witch of Ware Woods
Witch of Ware Woods will tell the story of Sara, an 18-year-old girl who struggles to hide her power from her environment. When a dark witch decides to hunt her down, Sara flees to Ware Woods. Life in the forest as an outsider is difficult: Sara is tested at every turn, and she has to balance learning everything she can about magic with hiding her own powers that set her apart from the others. But when the dark witch tracks her down, she has no choice but to unleash her power. Will she be able to save her newfound community or accidently destroy it?
If you are just as excited about this upcoming series as I am, you can already pre-order the eBook of Witch of Ware Woods via Amazon.com (it will be free for Kindle Unlimited subscribers). Hardcover & paperback editions will become available as well. The publication date is 19 October 2021.
