Get lost in this riveting novel as five teen witches join together in the hunt to find a murderer when no one else will even believe that a killing took place, in the thrilling pages of "Witches'... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I believe that this book was probably written for kids in my age group (I'm 15), so I thought I'd write my opinion! I really enjoyed this book- I couldn't put it down and ended up reading it in one evening- although I think that a lot of the things that the coven in the story does should NOT be considered as plausible actions for real teenagers to take. In other words, it's a FICTIONAL story, so don't take it too seriously.. just read it and enjoy it. Have some fun!
It's NOT a book of shadows, it's a work of FICTION
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I read this book in an afternoon- it's a compelling story and an easy read. I think teens will enjoy the story and thecliff-hanger chapter endings. I'm a public librarian and see Silver's books checked out every day and think this one will be no different! (And in response to an earlier review: Authors do NOT get to choose their covers. That is done by the PUBLISHER. Learn a little about the business before you pipe up and sound, well, uneducated. Secondly, this is a work of FICTION. Nowhere does Silver advocate that you or your loved ones run out and invoke the hounds of the wild hunt. I thought Silver handled that aspect very responsibly. )
A Good Read

I found this book quite entertaining but it did leave out thereligious part of the Craft, except in the character Tillie. I couldwax ecstatic about the way a certain previous reviewer who wouldn't even give their name misinterpreted the cover badly, but I, unlike some people, am here to review the book. I do not feel that calling on the Wild Hunt is a good idea in any circumstance, however, if you have read the book and seen what happens when the characters do, you would have to be absolutely thick to do so. Back to reviewing, however. I feel this book is quite excellent for Witches who have been discriminated against (and I am one), making me realize I am much better off. Also, if you are not a Witch, it makes an interesting story. Oh, and to the person I mentioned earlier: It's not jail, and some people dress like that now unless you are from the eighteen hundreds you should not be surprised. I say, have you read the book at all?
Witchs' Night Out
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Like all the other fabulous books written by Silver this one ranks right up at the top. I recieved the book on Tuesday May. 2nd, and could not put it down till I was finished. It is both a Fantastic read and will keep you on the edge of your seat. It is one of the best Fiction/Mystery Novels I have ever picked up.It blends Witchcraft and Mystery and puts you right there in the story. It is true what the Book conveys:"Night has fallen and Magick is afoot..." It is a must read for the Young and Old. Both thumbs up again to you Ms.Ravenwolf and keep up the Great work.
Terrific new series debut!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This first entry in a terrific new young adult series raises the standard for series fiction. The diverse characters, the mystery to solve, and the touch of occult make it enticing. Somewhat like Nancy Drew, Bethany Salem lives with an eccentric housekeeper in a nice large home while her father (a NYC detective) is kept busy working in the city. She drives a red Camaro and has a circle of friends with whom she just happens to practice witchcraft. The emphasis on working toward good is very subltly entwined making it uplifting while not preachy. RavenWolf is a fine storyteller with exquisite pacing. Highly recommended.
