THE WITCH'S ELEPHANT
What happens when a witch who can't find it in her heart to be evil inherits the legacy of the most feared sorceress in history?
Grizzelda "Grizz" Longward is a fraud. At least, that's what she tells herself. Despite six years at the School of Witchcraft, she has failed at the one thing a witch of the Highborn bloodline is supposed to do: inspire terror. Instead of cursing her enemies, her spells accidentally leave them better off than they were before.
When Grizz is sent to Batwing Cottage to take over the duties of her legendary grandmother, Patricia Highborn the "Largest Evil" she finds herself trapped between a terrifying prophecy and her own compassionate nature. Desperate for answers, Grizz embarks on an epic 2,000-mile odyssey across the Sea of Meridian to the exotic Far Land in search of a mysterious witch doctor.
Her journey takes a life changing turn when she rescues a young, orphaned elephant named Scraps. Binding him as her familiar, this unlikely duo must navigate a world of hidden dangers:
A vengeful, blind rival who uses a cloud of bats as her eyes.
A lethal Werebane masquerading as a charming traveler.
The ruthless Witches' Council, who demand a blood-soaked tribute and hide dark secrets beyond the veil of death.
As Grizz uncovers the startling truth about her grandmother's past and her own hidden powers, she realizes she is the "Chosen One" foretold to either save the world or lead it into eternal darkness. With an elephant by her side and a silver-tipped tusk as their defense, Grizz must decide: will she play the part of the evil hag to survive, or will she forge a new path for all of witchcraft?
"The Witch's Elephant" is a gripping fantasy adventure perfect for readers who love magical quests, animal companions, and the struggle between destiny and the heart.
The journey has only just begun. Will Grizz destroy the Witches' Council, or will she die trying?
