The New York Times bestselling series!
Her world-altering secret can't be hidden much longer. Prepare to be spellbound by the third book in The Black Witch Chronicles by critically acclaimed fantasy author Laurie Forest.

Elloren Gardner hides the most powerful secret in all Erthia—she is the Black Witch of Prophecy, and destined to triumph...or be used as the ultimate weapon of destruction.
Separated from everyone she loves, isolated and hunted, Elloren must turn to the last person she can trust—her fastmate, Commander Lukas Grey. With the Mage forces of Gardneria poised to conquer all of Erthia, Elloren has no choice but to ally with Lukas and combine their power to keep herself out of the hands of Gardnerian leader Marcus Vogel...the holder of the all-consuming Shadow Wand.
With just weeks to train to become a warrior, and no control over her magic, Elloren finds unexpected allies among those under orders to kill her. It's time to step up. To fight back. And to forge onward through the most devastating loss yet.

      Julia Whelan narrates the third audiobook in Forest's ambitious Black Witch fantasy series. Her steady seriousness reflects the many dangers facing Earthia. The intricate, magical world is in the grip of darkness. Whelan conveys the dilemmas characters face as they grapple with commitments impossible to keep, large sacrifices, and unfathomable losses. Whelan continues to meet the challenge of managing increasingly complex storylines and multiple characters, whom she nicely distinguishes through nuances of pitch, pacing and tone. This is a long audiobook in an expansive series, and Whelan takes time to let the characters' struggles and circumstances unfold. While her pace may unsettle fans invested in hearing about Elloren's love interests, Whelan ensures that fans stay tuned for what is to come next. J.C.G. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine
