Description
Filled with magic, heart-wrenching romance and high-stakes adventure. Susan Dennard's Windwitch is the second fantasy novel in the Witchlands series, and is the action-packed sequel to Truthwitch.
Sometimes our enemies become our only allies . . .

Person
Susan Dennard has come a long way from small-town Georgia. Working in marine biology, she got to travel the world - six out of seven continents (she'll get to Asia one of these days!) - before she settled down as a full-time novelist and writing instructor. She is the author of the Something Strange and Deadly series, as well as the Witchlands series, which includes the New York Times bestselling Truthwitch and Windwitch. When not writing, she can be found hiking with her dogs, slaying darkspawn on her Xbox, or earning bruises at the dojo.
