Summary

Her power has attracted the wrong kind of attention. Now a centuries-old witch wants to burn her at the stake....

Blackmouth, Scotland. After managing to bury a vicious witch with her elemental magic, Georjie is horrified to learn entombing the spellcaster in soil has enabled the dark woman to rise again…and time is running out.

Their romance blossoming in spite of the threat, Georjie and Lachlan travel to Dundee for clues to the fiend’s power. Learning that the ashes of three Wise will increase Daracha's power, and the ultimate goal is the destruction of the veil between worlds, Georjie realizes she's in way over her head.

When the vengeful hag's shadowy pet demon comes after her, Georjie narrowly escapes into the Fae realm. There, she’s warned against returning to face the danger by someone who has tangled with the witch before. She's encouraged to start a new life within the protection Queen Elphame's realm can provide. But Georjie won’t let the monster roam free, even if it means risking her own life.

Can Georjie unlock her magic or will the black witch claim her ashes?

Ashes of the Wise is the second book in the gripping Earth Magic Rises YA contemporary fantasy series. If you like wicked action, dark tales, a little romance, and bold heroes, then you’ll love A.L. Knorr’s wild ride across realms.

Fantastic Sequel


I loved Ashes of the Wise. It’s the perfect blend of suspense and mystery with a tad bit of romance.
Georjie’s journey picks up right where it left off. With the help of Lachlan she’s able to track down some leads that may aid in her search for the truth about what happened hundreds of years ago.
What she finds about Daracha is surprising to say the least.
The information will send her on a quest in which her friends can not follow.
Along the way she ends up learning a bit more about herself. Things that have her questioning who she really is.
The ending made me eager to find out what happens next. I can’t wait to start the Heart of the Fae.

Another amazing book

This book continues on from book 1 where Georjie finds out that she hasn't defeated Daracha after all and that she will come back even stronger.

What follows is a trip to Dundee to research Daracha's history with Lachlan, then Georjie comes across the Ithy again and she's pulled into Within which saves her.

Fyfa fills Georjie in more of Daracha's history, which also involves her.too.

Fyfa pleads with Georjie to stay in Within so that she will be safe for the rest of her life, but she can't leave Daracha there searching for more Wise, so they make plans.

I love how everything is woven together, the narrative runs so smoothly. Marni Penning does an excellent job as usual of bringing the story to life.

I highly recommend this book and all of Ms Knorr's other work.
