The Witch Collector (Witch Walker, #1)

"A romantasy masterpiece. With characters you root for, cry for, and some you love to hate, you will find it all in a rich world that might leave some bite marks as you go." ~ LJ Andrews, Author of Broken Souls and Bone & The Ever King "Charissa Weaks is always a romantasy must-read! I adore Raina's quiet strength and Alexus's brooding intensity. Sure to be the start of an epic, deliciously smoldering journey." ~ Penn Cole, NYT Bestseller of Spark of the Everflame Every harvest moon, the Witch Collector rides into our valley and leads one of us to the home of the immortal Frost King, to remain forever. Today is that day-Collecting Day. But he will not come for me. I, Raina Bloodgood, have lived in this village for twenty-four years, and for all that time he has passed me by. His mistake. Raina Bloodgood has one desire: kill the Frost King and the Witch Collector who stole her sister. On Collecting Day, she means to exact murderous revenge, but a more sinister threat sets fire to her world. Rising from the ashes is the Collector, Alexus Thibault, the man she vowed to slay and the only person who can help save her sister. Thrust into an age-old story of ice, fire, and ancient gods, Raina must abandon vengeance and aid the Witch Collector or let their empire-and her sister-fall into enemy hands. But the lines between good and evil blur, and Raina has more to lose than she imagined. What is she to do when the Witch Collector is no longer the villain who stole her sister, but the hero who's stealing her heart? The Witch Collector is book one of The Witch Walker series, a five-book romantasy tale that centers around Raina Bloodgood, a fierce, non-verbal heroine who embarks on a journey of self-discovery and star-crossed romance, all while coping with tremendous loss and a revelation of secrets that forever alter her world. This story is perfect for readers who enjoy plot twists, unique magick systems, old gods and lore, found family, banter, multiple romantic couples to root for, and the kind of cleverly twisted tale that leaves a trail of Easter eggs to be discovered. "This is a super sweet, incredibly fun read. It has everything: centuries old brooding hotties, magical time travel, a literal wolf god, sisters with a never ending bond. We're waiting very patiently for the next book in the series, but the first 2 and the novella are everything." ~ Rachel Torgerson, Cosmopolitan Senior Director "If you didn't know, this is my favourite series of all time. This book has so many little nuggets of foreshadowing for what is to come in book two, which is still the most incredible plot twist in the history of the world." ~ Celeste Raine, Book Influencer & Reviewer
