Chronicle During Books The Witch Hunter (The Witch Hunter #1)
The magic and suspense of Graceling meet the political intrigue and unrest of Game of Thrones in this riveting fantasy debut. Your greatest enemy isn't what you fight, but what you fear. Elizabeth Grey is one of the king's best witch hunters, devoted to rooting out witchcraft and doling out justice. But when she's accused of being a witch herself, Elizabeth is arrested and sentenced to burn at the stake. Salvation comes from a man she thought was her enemy. Nicholas Perevil, the most powerful and dangerous wizard in the kingdom, offers her a deal: he will save her from execution if she can break the deadly curse that's been laid upon him. But Nicholas and his followers know nothing of Elizabeth's witch hunting past--if they find out, the stake will be the least of her worries. And as she's thrust into the magical world of witches, ghosts, pirates, and one all-too-handsome healer, Elizabeth is forced to redefine her ideas of right and wrong, of friends and enemies, and of love and hate. Virginia Boecker weaves a riveting tale of magic, betrayal, and sacrifice in this unforgettable fantasy debut.Present Books Toward The Witch Hunter (The Witch Hunter #1)

See more reviews at YA Midnight ReadsWhy I'm only giving Witch Hunter 1.5 stars:1. The main character is "one of the best witch hunters in Anglia" MY ASS. If you're telling me that she's one of the best witch hunters why do all we see from the very beginning is Elizabeth make fail after fail? I get that people make mistakes, but honestly, if you're gonna tell me that this chick is the most badass hunter in town you gotta sell it to me. At least once. I DON'T ASK FOR MUCH.2. The main character isThe Witch Hunter is one of those rare reads where you feel so immersed in the story and culture (alternate 16th century England) that you forget to put the laundry in the dryer and the bathtub nearly overflows. Elizabeth is the only female witch hunter in her country, part an elite group that hunts down witches to be burned at the stake. The stakes (ha) are raised when she is accused of being a witch hunter herself, and she finds refuge with the people who used to be her enemies, while trying to
this book is SO FUN. everything about it catches you from the very first page and takes you into a world that's familiar, yet fresh enough to keep you guessing and smiling at every turn.sure, elizabeth is tough, but she's also smart and damned funny. seriously, this dialogue made me laugh out loud (literally), and the tête-à -tête was so well done that there were times i felt miffed when it ended.do you want to see what happens when a girl takes on a brace of flying birds with nothing but some
I agree completely! She was such an unlikable character and her personality was so forced! I lasted a little longer with this book but it wasn't worth

Elizabeth Grey is one of the kings best witch hunters, completely devoted to her job and serving what she thinks to be justice. Until she is accused of being a witch herself, arrested and sentenced to burn at the stake for her supposed crimes.Salvation comes from Nicholas Perevil, the most powerful wizard in the kingdom ( I'm not going
Im not a witch, I repeat. I mean, I did have witches herbs. And I did take them. But Im not a witch. Even to me, this sounds weak. This book compares itself to Game of Thrones. Don't even. Just don't.I wanted to strangle the main character repeatedly. She is so stupid. Don't get me wrong, I don't like perfect characters.I don't like it when they accomplish everything, but neither do I like it when, by 30% of the book, they have completely fucked up everything they set out to do.Bumbling is the
(Source: I received a digital copy of this book for free on a read-to-review basis. Thanks to Hachette Children's Books and NetGalley.) Shes a witch, he says. I cant let her go. This wasnt a terrible story, but I did lose interest.I felt quite sorry for Elizabeth at the start of this book, admittedly she was in the business of getting people killed by outing them as witches, but the way she was labelled a witch through little fault of her own seemed unfair. Although maybe it was just karma. A
