A review by cydchristine96
The Famine Witch by Stephen Black

3.0

This was a dark gritty book told in a plague era where people fended for themselves and relied heavily on superstition and religion it seemed.

The black witch targets those for vengeance and bloody hands is the source of murder, darkness and fear in their town. The book follows maggie & Jinx at its core with other POVS painting a full picture of what plagues the town and its inhabitants.

I really loved maggie, she was compassionate, savvy and her dutiful care for her brother was my favourite part. I love how full circle everything comes at the end. Every character seems to get what they deserve.
