El consejo dice que solo es una prueba. Una formalidad. Sí, y yo soy un duendecito con tutú. Convocaron a todos los brujos de Hollow Cove para a mí, a mis tías, a todos y cada una de nosotros. Porque, al parecer, salvar vidas, erradicar maldiciones y evitar que este pueblo se convirtiera en cenizas no ha sido suficiente para que merezcamos un poco de confianza. Algo no encaja. Lo puedo sentir en mis huesos de bruja. Ahora tengo que lidiar con interrogatorios mágicos, agendas secretas y la creciente sospecha de que esta prueba no es lo que parece. Marcus desapareció. Mis tías están a punto de desatar el infierno. Y mi instinto me dice que el verdadero peligro ni siquiera ha comenzado. Si fallamos en esta prueba, podríamos perderlo nuestro poder, nuestra libertad, nuestro hogar. Pero si piensan que voy a rendirme sin pelear… Se metieron con la bruja equivocada.

All of the witches of Hollow Cove are being forced to submit to an evaluation by the Grey Council that is being referred to as the Witch Trials. When the board of witches starts determining the majority of witches should have their powers bound, pandemonium erupts. The main council member states she will return everyone's power if Tessa turns over her son. The town pretty much goes nuts because they are becoming powerless as their magical power is being slowly drained.
I am disappointed in through heavy and identifiable phrasing that reads like chatgpt. I love the authors natural writing voice and this book is a major departure from that. The adjective stacking, triplicates and telling versus showing. I will plow thru the rest because I am vested on the storyline.
Trial by Spell was a great read—fast-paced, magical, and full of sharp twists! I couldn’t put it down and dove straight into the second book without hesitation. If you love strong heroines, clever worldbuilding, and a little chaos with your magic, this one delivers!
Wow I kept thinking how they would even get out of this situation!! I can’t wait for the next book. Good writing, great characters and a super story line!! More more please!!
I just love this series and this book didn't disappoint. There's always something happening. It's not always a HEA ending but it's also not a cliffhanger that will drive you crazy to find out what happens. You will enjoy this book. Can be read alone, but I recommend starting from the beginning with Shadow Witch. The book goes into more detail about the town, people along with Marcus and Tessa's relationship.
