Witch Hunter
by Virginia Boecker
I got this book because you know booktube....And well some booktubers where raving about how good this book was me being me I wanted to see what all the fuss was about so I bought this book, mostly because I was curious but the premise sounded good actually and well I wound up being a little disappointed in the end because I guess I expected more from Witch Hunter and I was hoping to like this book which I didn't as I didn't really care for Elizabeth Grey and lets see it takes 31 chapters for something to happen it's like the story stalls and nothing much goes on the premise says otherwise as that shit doesn't really happen for a long time anyway but when it does well I stopped caring by then.
I will push with the sequel because hey why not maybe things get better in the final book, who knows but yeah I think the hype ruined this book for me and I have never read anything else by Virginia Boecker and I just hope the sequel is better.
A summery for Witch Hunter:
Sixteen-year-old Elizabeth Grey doesn't look dangerous. A tiny, blonde, wisp of a girl shouldn't know how to poison a wizard and make it look like an accident. Or take out ten necromancers with a single sword and a bag of salt. Or kill a man using only her thumb. But things are not always as they appear. Elizabeth is one of the best witch hunters in Anglia and a member of the king's elite guard, devoted to rooting out witchcraft and bringing those who practice it to justice. And in Anglia, the price of justice is high: death by burning.
When Elizabeth is accused of being a witch herself, she's arrested and thrown in prison. The king declares her a traitor and her life is all but forfeit. With just hours before she's to die at the stake, Elizabeth gets a visitor - Nicholas Perevil, the most powerful wizard in Anglia. He offers her a deal: he will free her from prison and save her from execution if she will track down the wizard who laid a deadly curse on him.
As Elizabeth uncovers the horrifying facts about Nicholas's curse and the unwitting role she played in its creation, she is forced to redefine the differences between right and wrong, friends and enemies, love and hate... and life and death.
