Can Love Conquer The Dead?

A dark red cover with two white young women in flowing silks standing back to back, one holds a blue flame the other's hand is empty

The Hollow Witch is a YA sapphic romantasy filled with love, friendship, action, betrayal, magic, disability, and the deadly cadaveri.

In the canal city of Arteria child soldier Silvie, who has lost her magic and part of her hearing, trains to be an alchemist’s apprentice.

There she meets Azura, the alchemist’s daughter. Despite the world of wealth that separates them the two are drawn to one another, but Arteria is plagued by the high cost of its magic use: the deadly cadaveri – walking corpses that prey on the living.

When the city comes under unprecedented threat, can Silvie and Azura save it? Do they even want to? Can love conquer all in this world, where a unique magic underpins a horrifying truth?

Called 'beautiful and macabre…a darkly spellbinding tale' by CS Pacat, bestselling writer of, The Captive Prince series and Dark Rise, The Hollow Witch.
