The Bone Witch is the 3rd book in the Witches of London Trilogy, which also includes The Secret Witch and The Whisper Witch.
Titles in the series (4)
- The Secret Witch
The “gorgeously gothic and gripping” YA fantasy novel about three witchy young women in Regency London who discover both their legacy and their destiny (The Guardian). For Emma and her cousins Gretchen and Penelope, the stuffiness of 1814 London society is simply unbearable—even as Emma wishes the roguish Cormac Fairfax would pay her any kind of attention. But that all changes when Emma accidentally breaks a glass memento left to her by her mother. Suddenly, all three young women find themselves gifted with powers of witchcraft—and they will most certainly need them. For they have unwittingly unleashed a scourge upon London: an evil coven whose powerful members gain their strength from killing young witches. And Emma has just caught their very unwanted attention . . . In this fun, frightful, and thrilling tale, Alyxandra Harvey invites you to be enthralled by her “elaborate fantasy world filled with whimsy, magic, and love” (Publishers Weekly). The Secret Witch is the 1st book in the Witches of London Trilogy, which also includes The Whisper Witch and The Bone Witch.
- The Witches of London Trilogy: The Secret Witch, The Whisper Witch, and The Bone Witch
All three books in the spellbinding YA trilogy hailed as “a smashing blend of adventure, fantasy, humor, romance, and historical fiction” (Booklist). For cousins Emma, Gretchen, and Penelope, the stuffiness of 1814 London society is simply unbearable. But their fates change when a sacred glass family keepsake is accidentally shattered—and all three young women find themselves gifted with powers of witchcraft. For in the coming days, they will most certainly need them . . . The Secret Witch: London is slowly sinking into darkness as the evil beings of the magical world start to roam free, including a nefarious coven whose powerful members gain their strength from killing young witches. Emma keeps finding the bodies of their victims, leading some to suspect her of the killings. But the coven sees her as something much more—their next target. The Whisper Witch: As a Whisperer, Gretchen constantly hears the murmurs of other witches’ spells. And while this does help her to know when one of her own spells is going wrong, the assault on her magical senses makes it difficult to use her own gifts. But when something evil begins menacing London, only Gretchen and her cousins can stop a terrible sacrifice from unleashing an unspeakable darkness. The Bone Witch: Cousin Penelope has been kidnapped and forced to use her talents for reading objects to locate the bones of long-dead evil witches. Her captor plans to use the bones to reanimate their dark spirits in living bodies and unleash them on an unsuspecting world. And the only hope to stop such a nightmare rests with Gretchen, Emma, and every witch in London as they struggle to reach Penelope in time. Full of action, romance, and humor, these three witchy, wonderful young adult adventures are sure to “appeal to those who were fans of Libba Bray’s Gemma Doyle series and the Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer” (VOYA).
- The Whisper Witch
“Harvey keeps the romance and action flowing” in the second young adult fantasy romance about three young women whose witchcraft may save all of London (Kirkus Reviews). In Regency England, cousins Gretchen, Emma, and Penelope are all dealing with what it means to be a Lovegrove—part of a long line of witches who wield great magic, but who must also face great danger. As a Whisperer, Gretchen constantly hears the murmurs of other witches’ spells. And while this does help her to know when one of her own spells is going wrong, the assault on her magical senses makes it difficult to use her own gifts—especially when she’s additionally distracted by the cool-as-ice and devastatingly handsome Tobias Lawless. But while Gretchen tries to hide the truth and resolve her feelings for Tobias, London falls under an evil shadow. Only Gretchen and her cousins can stop a terrible sacrifice from unleashing an unspeakable darkness . . . With “a well-developed romance and a cliffhanger ending,” Alyxandra Harvey continues to cast a spell over anyone who loves a brilliant romantic fantasy (School Library Journal). The Whisper Witch is the 2nd book in the Witches of London Trilogy, which also includes The Secret Witch and The Bone Witch.
