Beschreibung

The follow-up to the sensational #1 Sunday Times bestseller Her Majesty's Royal Coven

All is not as it seems within the halls of Her Majesty's Royal Coven...

Despite thinking they've thwarted the prophecy, the witches are still reeling from the events of the past few months.

Ciara now occupies her twin sister's body as she prepares to take on the role of High Priestess. But why are the sinister government agents of the Shadow Cabinet so invested in her coronation?

And then there's the small matter of Dabney Hale: freshly escaped from Grierlings prison, he's on the hunt for a mythical object that will give him unimaginable power. Leonie's brother is on the trail, but doesn't know the danger he now faces, and so she sets off to bring him home and bring Hale to justice.

Meanwhile, Theo and Holly are left to their own devices. Theo to work out how her miraculous transformation took place and Holly to discover what's going on with her mum and dad. Elle's Instagram-perfect world is about to come crashing down in the most terrifying way.

Payback's a witch as Ciara, Leonie, Elle, Theo and Holly are about to find out.

Rezensionen

MORE PRAISE FOR HER MAJESTY'S ROYAL COVEN

'Superb and almost unbearably charming' THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

'fast-paced and impossible to put down [...] over the course of the two books I started to think of the characters as new friends.' GOOD HOUSEKEEPING

'Talk about a gut punch of a novel. ...A provocative exploration of intersectional feminism, loyalty, gender and transphobia [that] invites readers into an intricately woven web of magic, friendship, and power' THE NERD DAILY

'A shimmering, irresistible cauldron's brew of my favourite things: a thrilling, witchy plot; a diverse, compelling, and beautifully drawn cast; complex relationships with real heart; laugh-out-loud banter; and the kind of

dazzling magic I wish existed. You won't be able to put it down'

Lana Harper, NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of PAYBACK'S A WITCH

'Dawson, in an impressive flex, uses the rules of the fantasy genre to make a statement about people of colour and LGBTQ individuals and how organizations can exclude and ignore them. Readers who enjoy witches and watching change ripple through a culture will enjoy this series' BOOKLIST (starred)

'Dawson's conversational, matter-of-fact tone calls to mind writers like Neil Gaiman and Diana Wynne Jones; it's at times funny, at others heartbreaking, but always perfectly calibrated...A thoughtful entry into the witch canon that intrigues and challenges as much as it delights' BOOKPAGE

'Look, if the idea of a story about a group of girls living in an alternate England and working for a centuries-old secret government bureau of witches doesn't grab you immediately, I don't know what to tell you' PASTE

'Cleverly constructed...Readers will be eager for the next instalment' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
