Witch of the Glens (Family Tree #3)
by Sally WatsonThe time was 1644 in Inverness, Scotland. As the "wicked wee lass" raced along the steep streets, just ahead of the stones and cries of brio sag! hurled at her, she wished with all her heart that she were a witch. What a spell she would put on them all! No one would ever chase or beat her again. For all her seventeen years, Kelpie could remember nothing but belonging to Mina and Bogle, gypsies who lived by their evil wits, who would not hesitate to sell each other, let alone Kelpie. She didn't blame them for that; the only law any of them knew was that of self-preservation. But Bogle said she had been kidnaped because of her blue ringed eyes of the "Second Sight," and she often wondered from where. A castle, perhaps? Nobility? Once away from Inverness, during their daily study of the crystal ball, Kelpie suspected that Mina could not see the pictures in it; she was getting it all from Kelpie. Testing this, Kelpie withheld details about the two fine young men she saw. When, a few days later, she carefully fell into the path of those same young men, she started a series of events that was to change her entire life.

My buddy, Robyn Peterman and I co-wrote the first chapters of our contributions together as a collaborative effort--with each of us writing our heroine's dialogue. The concept was plotted, and created by both parties during lots of giggling phone calls.When the anthology disbanded, Robyn and I each took our titles and republished them (see Robyn Peterman's Switching Hour) as stand-alone titles. In the process, Robyn chose to revise and change the name of my character (Winnie).So, if you've read Robyn's book and are just now reading mine (or vice versa) you're not seeing things! Our first chapters are very similar--please take care in noting the details of our book's publications in reviews and on social media. Dakota Cassidy xxoo

Witches Among Us: The Story of the Salem Witchcraft Trials
by Steven L. SternThis is a true story. The strange and shocking events described really happened about three hundred years ago. They took place in the Massachusetts Bay Colony in a small farming community called Salem Village. In 1692, Salem Village was legally part of Salem Town, a busy port five miles to the east. To find Salem Village on a Massachusetts map today, look for the town of Danvers. That's the name Salem Village took when it became independent in 1752. The records of all that went on before and during the witchcraft trials are not complete. To this day, historians are still trying to piece together all the events and figure out how and why they happened.

Witches Be Crazy
by Logan HunderReal heroes never die. But they do get grouchy in middle age. The beloved King Ik is dead, and there was barely time to check his pulse before the royal throne was supporting the suspiciously shapely backside of an impostor pretending to be Ik's beautiful long-lost daughter. With the land's heroic hunks busy drooling all over themselves, there's only one man left who can save the kingdom of Jenair. His name is Dungar Loloth, a rural blacksmith turned innkeeper, a surly hermit and an all-around nobody oozing toward middle age, compensating for a lack of height, looks, charm, and tact with guts and an attitude. Normally politics are the least of his concerns, but after everyone in the neighboring kingdom of Farrawee comes down with a severe case of being dead, Dungar learns that the masquerading princess not only is behind the carnage but also has similar plans for his own hometown. Together with the only person senseless enough to tag along, an eccentric and arguably insane hobo named Jimminy, he journeys out into the world he's so pointedly tried to avoid as the only hope of defeating the most powerful person in it. That is, if he can survive the pirates, cultists, radical Amazonians, and assorted other dangers lying in wait along the way. Logan J. Hunder's hilarious debut blows up the fantasy genre with its wry juxtaposition of the fantastic and the mundane, proving that the best and brightest heroes aren't always the best for the job.
