A Spellbinding Narrative

The Useless WitchThe Useless Witch by Savannah Lee
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

In the quiet village, where sun-drenched streets hold secrets, I met Saoirse—a baker with no magic. Yes, you read that right—no magic. In a world where mystical abilities define worth, Saoirse is an anomaly. She’s comfortable in her ordinary life, far away from her abusive royal parents—the King and Queen of Lanthus. But fate has a twisted sense of humor. When Saoirse stumbles upon Vane, a Darkwing—a creature feared by all—her world tilts on its axis. Vane is on a hunt, seeking something that could unravel her family’s magic. And Saoirse, born under a solar eclipse, feels a kinship with darkness. She might vanish into Vane’s shadows forever if she's not careful.

What I Loved:
Character Depth: Saoirse’s resilience and vulnerability make her relatable. Her lack of magic becomes her strength.
Forbidden Connection: Vane, the enigmatic Darkwing, challenges Saoirse’s perceptions. Their interactions crackle with tension.
Magicless Heroine: Saoirse’s journey defies conventions. Can she find power beyond spells and incantations?
Darkwing Secrets: Vane’s motives remain shrouded. What drives him, and how does Saoirse fit into his quest?

The Useless Witch is a sunlit escape—a tale of courage, sacrifice, and love transcending magical boundaries. Step into Saoirse's world if you seek a blend of shadows and hope. Just beware—the echoes of Saoirse’s ordinary yet extraordinary life may linger in your dreams.

Savannah Lee weaves a spellbinding narrative. Her characters remind us that magic lies not only in spells but also in the resilience of the human spirit.
