Crypt Witch Collection

Rate this book
Indulge in five full-length witch mysteries.

If you love mysteries with fun, fabulous characters, talking animals, a strong coven of witches, and puzzles to figure out, you’ll enjoy this magic-filled, cozy paranormal mystery boxed set collection.

Make friends with troubled witch, Tempest Crypt. Fall in love with her greedy, slightly smelly miniature talking hellhound, Wiggles, and enjoy seeing the bonds of family and friendship sprinkled with magic, murder, and just a touch of mayhem.

Luck of the Witch - Tempest Crypt and Wiggles go head to head with Angel Force to save Aurora Crypt, Tempest's younger sister, from a murder charge. With too many suspects, too little time, and a troublesome demon to keep in check, Tempest has her back against the wall.

Hell of A Witch - When a journalist covering the solstice is discovered dead in the cemetery managed by the Crypt Witches, Angel Force wants answers. Tempest and Wiggles must figure out who killed this nosy journalist before her family's reputation is ruined.

Revenge of the Witch - When Izzie, a member of Tempest's team at Cloven Hoof, becomes a murder suspect, Tempest steps in to lend a hand. The angels are pointing the finger at Izzie, but Tempest is determined to protect her. Izzie is sweet and funny. She's no killer. Or is she?

Curse of the Witch - Tempest leaps on her broomstick to help Auntie Queenie and her gang of witch biker babes when one of them dies. Was a demon involved? A curse? Or something more sinister? Tempest and Wiggles are on the case, hunting bad guys, eating too much cake, and running rings around the angels.

Son of a Witch - What should be a simple security job turns chaotic when a renowned witch, and insufferable know-it-all, is found dead at the opening of the Willow Tree Falls magic museum. With the head of Angel Force missing, the mayor insists Tempest look into the murder. She takes on the case but soon discovers the mayor can't help but interfere. Which is a problem. Because he's a suspect...

Enjoy this bundle of magical puzzling mysteries, where red herrings run free and the suspects always have something to hide.

Mystery, fun, puzzles, friendships, cute animals, twisting clues, and a strong-willed sleuth with an appetite for justice (and brownies) guaranteed.

There's some interesting world-building here. The town of Willow Tree Falls is inhabited mostly by magical or magic-working beings. Tempest Crypt's family are responsible for maintaining the prison for demons that's housed in the town cemetery. Tempest herself is a skilled demon hunter, frequently leaving town to track and trap demons at large. She does her work well, in spite of sharing her body with a rogue demon who occasionally tries to take control and is determined to kill Tempest's sister.

As if that weren't enough for one witch to handle, she also is one of the few responsible, thinking adults in town, and generally winds up solving mysteries in spite of the town police force (entirely made up of big, strong, beautiful, and extremely stupid angels).

A fun read, as long as you don't get too hung up on the details.

A host of paranormal s and murders

Tempest Crypt (perfect name) and her witch family guard the cemetery in Willow Tree Falls. But Tempest, who harbors a demon inside her, is also a demon hunter and crime solving woman. These books are fun and each murder happens early I’m each book, so most is how the murderers are found. The myriad suspects, along with family and town happenings give each book interesting turns of events. The final happenings and discovery of each murderer is surprising and only happens in strange and unusual circumstances. Well worth the reads.

crypt witch collection 1-5

This series was great. I have read a whole other series by this author and what she writes in all her series are good stories that keep you wanting to read the next book and the book after that she leaves the ending making you wanting more and I personally like that in an author. Her characters are very smart intelligent and wiggles who is tempest crypt hellhound he keeps the laughter going through all the hard work of finding clues to the murders they are trying to solve . Great series on to 6-10 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Did not finish. Read the first book. An engaging heroine, rather dumb and frustrating to read about. The writing is confused and strictly in the POV of the heroine. The plot is sluggish; the heroine struggles to understand what’s happening around her and doesn’t do obvious things to get to the heart of the mystery, and deal with her many issues, mostly self inflicted. No subtlety to the themes. The world building is weak - inconsistent.

So Happy I Discovered This Series

I love, love, love this series. The characters are quirky fun. The whole talking dog thing is not too weird to think it's lame. The mysteries keep you guessing. The story line keeps you involved enough that you can't wait to start the next one. I have to go now so I can purchase the book 6. Happy reading!

OOOOH MY GOOOD!

These books have kept me reading and not getting anything else done for days now! They are so engaging and I never see the killer in the ending! I haven’t figured one out yet. That’s why I love this author I cannot predict the ending in 10 chapters. Such a wonderful author. Highly recommend all their books.

Angels and all

I liked the characters, especially Frank &Wiggles. Tempest is a strong character who believes in right & wrong. She finds & captures demons for angels. Angels who are as thick as mud. Oh boy.
Did not like not being told how Tempest & Frank ended up together properly.

Unfortunately, this collection of books follows the all-too-common pattern of many books sold in a multi-book set. Book #1 is pretty good, and then all the rest of the series are just rinse-and-repeat versions of #1: change a few names, add a different villain, change the title, and call it book #2, book #3, etc...

It's fine.

There are cute little cozy mysteries, and are completely fine. They are not super original or ground breaking, but that is not what these kind of books are meant to be. Nice easy read overall.

Cryptic Fun

Very entertaining. O'Connor has an interesting premise with a generational family of witches who guard the crypts while our protagonist tries to lead a more normal life while capturing demons and solving murders. Jump right in!

Awesome

This is a fun book series. Each book is a different mystery. There's danger and scares aplenty as well as a healthy dose of humour. The characters are engaging and fun. I'm looking forward to reading more of this series.

comfort reading.

Really liked it in the beginning , but by the end of the series, I already knew the ending. Got monotonous. Read the first book or two, then stop. Maybe come back for the next two at a later date.

Excellent box set

This is a good series, Tempest and her family deal with demons, she helps solve the murder mysteries. Definitely some twists and the characters are what keeps you reading. Some laugh out loud moments with the hellhound too!

It was a fun series. I got it for free and I dont think I'd pay to read the rest of the series after mb the second book bc the format of all of them is basically identical give or take in all 5 books. But i really enjoyed the hell hound he was really cute and funny and he's mostly why i stayed.

I have finished the first three books and had to take a break. These stories are a little intense and I need some time with some lighter fare.

unable to suspend disbelief

Formulaic mishmash. Possible AI hallucination. Could not finish. Deviations from formula don’t make sense. I do not recommend this book.
