Summary
The realm war is near and the Prophecy is at hand。 The Black Witch is back…and the demon tide is coming。 Prepare to be spellbound by The Black Witch Chronicles。
Nothing can stop the demon tide…
Newly exposed as the Black Witch of Prophecy， Elloren Gardner Grey is on the run， not knowing if she’ll find friends or foes。 With her fastmate， Lukas Grey， either dead or in the hands of High Mage Marcus Vogel， Elloren knows the only chance of turning the tide of the coming war is to seek allies who will listen long enough not to kill her on sight。
In the Eastern Realm， Water Fae Tierney Calix and Elloren’s brother Trystan have joined the Wyvernguard to prepare for Vogel’s attack。 But Trystan is fighting on two fronts， as the most despised and least trusted member of the guard。 And Tierney’s bond with Erthia’s most powerful river has exposed a danger even more terrifying than the looming war。

I was lucky enough to read an early version of Laurie's novel。 No spoilers here。 I'll just say it's the best one yet， utterly original， filled with action， intrigue， and swoony romance as well as important messages straight from this talented author's heart。 Fans of this series will not be disappointed。 Bravo Laurie！ I was lucky enough to read an early version of Laurie's novel。 No spoilers here。 I'll just say it's the best one yet， utterly original， filled with action， intrigue， and swoony romance as well as important messages straight from this talented author's heart。 Fans of this series will not be disappointed。 Bravo Laurie！ 。。。more

Amazing。 So much attention to our beloved cast of characters。 The plot took turns I couldn’t have anticipated。 I could not put this book down。 Please， for the love of God， read The Black Witch Chronicles！！ I will say that the purple moon festival really anchored the story for me and gave me lots to look forward to as I read。

Wow！ This whole series has gripped my heart and soul。 The Demon Tide however， squeezed more tears of heartache and happiness than any of the previous books。 I think this series should be required reading。 Laurie is just brilliant in her ability to address serious real world issues through the lens of a fantasy world。 I am desperately awaiting the audiobook so I can re-experience this book at a slow pace and really absorb everything that happened。 I was literally on the edge of my chair reading s Wow！ This whole series has gripped my heart and soul。 The Demon Tide however， squeezed more tears of heartache and happiness than any of the previous books。 I think this series should be required reading。 Laurie is just brilliant in her ability to address serious real world issues through the lens of a fantasy world。 I am desperately awaiting the audiobook so I can re-experience this book at a slow pace and really absorb everything that happened。 I was literally on the edge of my chair reading so fast I know I had to have missed so many little nuances。 As with every other book in the series I will own this in every format， read over and over， write down my favorite quotes hit deep down， and just never get tired of this story。 I will likely edit this once I can digest all my emotions but for now 5-stars， 10 if I could give them。 Everyone should be reading the Black Witch Chronicles！！！！ 。。。more

I could not put this book down。 The world， these characters， the FEELS。 I've always been a strong advocate of this series， and this installment only fortified that。 I felt as if I were right alongside Elloren， screaming with her， crying with her， laughing with her。 I was completely immersed in the rich story。 The Demon Tide broke me and shattered my heart， but I am hopeful and cannot wait for what comes next。 I could not put this book down。 The world， these characters， the FEELS。 I've always been a strong advocate of this series， and this installment only fortified that。 I felt as if I were right alongside Elloren， screaming with her， crying with her， laughing with her。 I was completely immersed in the rich story。 The Demon Tide broke me and shattered my heart， but I am hopeful and cannot wait for what comes next。 。。。more

Listen， I SPEED READ through this book because my heart was so anxious… so I am going to reread with the audiobook on release day。But if everything that I think happened actually happened… We are good。 All the stars。 If things are reversed or if there are people in it that shouldn’t be in the next book… I will be mad 🤣But I loved Trystans story so much！ And there was a lot of other love stories that warmed my heart to no end。 This is a kissing book。

I will definitely be coming back here and updating my review in a couple weeks， but did this as a buddy read with ACOFAELaura （https://www。goodreads。com/smartieblondie） and podcast cohost and wow。 I'm just still spiraling with how amazing it was。 Where to start。 I am shook to my core。 This is EASILY one of the best reads of 2022。 I wish more people were shouting this series from the roof tops。 The chills that I received reading。 I scream。 I cried。 I got chills。 It was everything I wanted and mor I will definitely be coming back here and updating my review in a couple weeks， but did this as a buddy read with ACOFAELaura （https://www。goodreads。com/smartieblondie） and podcast cohost and wow。 I'm just still spiraling with how amazing it was。 Where to start。 I am shook to my core。 This is EASILY one of the best reads of 2022。 I wish more people were shouting this series from the roof tops。 The chills that I received reading。 I scream。 I cried。 I got chills。 It was everything I wanted and more。 THE IMAGERY。 I'm still trying to put into words how much this book made me feel and how it truly should be considered a required reading。 This whole series。 Thank you SO MUCH Inkyard press for the opportunity to read this ARC。 I'm still trying to process everything that I read， so will be coming back here to update in the near future。 Will definitely be rereading with the audio too。 I'm still out of breath thinking about the depths of this book。 。。。more

I can't be the only one who is absolutely fed up of this Yvan， Lukas idiocy。 The man is dead。 Please leave him dead。 And to be honest， at the start of the series neither of these men were spectacular。 Lukas proved himself and Yvan died。 That's it。 It should be over。 Can we now focus on Elloren - not the men in her life？ Thanks！ I can't be the only one who is absolutely fed up of this Yvan， Lukas idiocy。 The man is dead。 Please leave him dead。 And to be honest， at the start of the series neither of these men were spectacular。 Lukas proved himself and Yvan died。 That's it。 It should be over。 Can we now focus on Elloren - not the men in her life？ Thanks！ 。。。more

I know my hopes are probably futile， BUT I REALLY hope Elloren， Lukas， and Yvan become a THRUPPLE！ （because I really don’t think Lukas is dead and lets face it， they’d all be perfect for eachother） They’d be an unstoppable trio， and it would be a huge punch in the face to the gardnerian traditions。 Also， I cannot handle another love triangle。 Don’t you dare put me in a pit of despair over a love triangle！ PLEASE HEAR MY PLEAS LAURIE FORREST。 I can’t wait for Elloren and all her friends to come t I know my hopes are probably futile， BUT I REALLY hope Elloren， Lukas， and Yvan become a THRUPPLE！ （because I really don’t think Lukas is dead and lets face it， they’d all be perfect for eachother） They’d be an unstoppable trio， and it would be a huge punch in the face to the gardnerian traditions。 Also， I cannot handle another love triangle。 Don’t you dare put me in a pit of despair over a love triangle！ PLEASE HEAR MY PLEAS LAURIE FORREST。 I can’t wait for Elloren and all her friends to come together so they can kill Vogel and the repulsive gardnerians。 。。。more

Apparently this is getting pushed from September 2021 to Feb 2022。 Not surprised， so far first three books had 18-19 months between them， so initially I was surprised to find out 3rd and 4th had only a 15 month breakI can barely remember the secondary plot-lines in b3 but I know I will forget them by FebruaryExpectations:- Perhaps a repeat of romance （view spoiler）[Yvan was dead in b3， Elloren was crashing on Lukas。 Now in b4 Lukas will be dead and Elloren will be crashing on Yvan （hide spoiler） Apparently this is getting pushed from September 2021 to Feb 2022。 Not surprised， so far first three books had 18-19 months between them， so initially I was surprised to find out 3rd and 4th had only a 15 month breakI can barely remember the secondary plot-lines in b3 but I know I will forget them by FebruaryExpectations:- Perhaps a repeat of romance （view spoiler）[Yvan was dead in b3， Elloren was crashing on Lukas。 Now in b4 Lukas will be dead and Elloren will be crashing on Yvan （hide spoiler）]- Elloren continuing to be a complete moron with no understanding of her role- Series will continue being black and white， with no discussion of goals and aftermath， no discussion of historic treatment of races to each other________________Probably the ugliest cover in the whole series？ Maybe it's low resolution i'm seeing this in， but every time I see a moon on hte cover， I immediately think "UGLY"UpdIt wasn't the resolution 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 This book better be nothing like the shadow wand。 That book was a hot mess。 So many plot holes and barely any plot。Édit: so just got the book and I’m only a bit over a 100 pages in but you can definitely tell it’s a white person writing about racial discrimination。 It’s not looking great guys I’ll update when I finish though
