Books like Witchery by Amber Benson
In *Witchery*, William and Tamara Swift awaken as Protectors of Albion and must eradicate a lethal poison threatening the kingdom. Their quest is complicated by demonic forces and rumors of women—both human and fairy—disappearing in Cornwall. With the support of England’s notorious ghosts, including Lord Byron, Queen Bodicea, and Lord Admiral Nelson, the pair confronts the sinister reality of witches, abductions, and a planned pyre of innocent victims on the solstice. The story expands beyond Albion to reveal darker deeds lurking in the legendary land of Camelot, threatening to endanger all of Britannia.
Written by Amber Benson, known for her work on *Buffy the Vampire Slayer*, and Christopher Golden, the Shadow Saga author, *Witchery* blends paranormal fiction with a nineteenth‑century setting of phantoms and fiends, creating a thriller that balances humor with genuine horror.
