Samenvatting

Sixteen-year-old Elizabeth Grey doesn't look dangerous. A tiny, blonde, wisp of a girl shouldn't know how to poison a wizard and make it look like an accident. Or take out ten necromancers with a single sword and a bag of salt. Or kill a man using only her thumb. But things are not always as they appear. Elizabeth is one of the best witch hunters in Anglia and a member of the king's elite guard, devoted to rooting out witchcraft and bringing those who practise it to justice. And in Anglia, the price of justice is high: death by burning.

When Elizabeth is accused of being a witch herself, she's arrested and thrown in prison. The king declares her a traitor and her life is all but forfeit. With just hours before she's to die at the stake, Elizabeth gets a visitor - Nicholas Perevil, the most powerful wizard in Anglia. He offers her a deal: he will free her from prison and save her from execution if she will track down the wizard who laid a deadly curse on him.

As Elizabeth uncovers the horrifying facts about Nicholas's curse and the unwitting role she played in its creation, she is forced to redefine the differences between right and wrong, friends and enemies, love and hate... and life and death.

The first book in an incredible new series set in a fantastical medieval world.

    • Fantasierijk
    • Mooi vormgegeven
    • Spannend

    Boecker’s historical fantasy is set in a world that is quite similar to our own. The time period echoes the medieval era but also reminded me a little bit of Cromwellian England. As I read the book, I noticed that the society seems to be a patriarchy where currently men hold all the power — there is a King, there’s Blackwell who is essentially Lord Protector, there’s Perevil who is the most powerful wizard. It’s interesting though that Elizabeth, a female, is the one who must save Perevil and break the curse. The magic within this book is interesting too. Each magic user sort of has different strengths and some have different specialties like healing and necromancy. I liked that magic wasn’t some unlimited resource and deus ex machina.

    If you like kissing books and romances, you’re in luck when reading The Witch Hunter. As the book opens, Elizabeth has this best friend from childhood named Caleb who has helped her get into the witch hunters and who seems to always have her back. I started the book thinking Elizabeth would end up with Caleb. However, when she goes to live with Perevil, there’s a new contender – John, the son of a pirate and a healer. John is awesome and let me just say that I really like what develops between the two.

    In all, this book sort of surprised me with how good it was. The Witch Hunter is certainly worth adding to your summer to be read pile.
