Resumen del Editor

A mysterious grimoire. A marriage full of dark secrets. A history sculpted by a quartet of ancient sister witches.

For 300 years, Sister Autumn has incited wars, burnt villages, killed kings, and released plagues at the bidding of the grimoire. Meanwhile, her Sister Winter, Sister Spring, and Sister Summer have brought forth only peace.

When an order from the grimoire sends Agatha to the Kingdom of Merveille, she already anticipates the worst. Unless she wants to face the wrath of the Goddess, Agatha must keep her head down and do as she's commanded.

But when the grimoire orders her to marry a pompous prince and play the role of a peasant "accepted" by vicious aristocrats, she finds herself at the center of a war between the classes and an age-old prophecy.

Within the court, many players harbor dark secrets—including her new husband. With her newfound influence, Agatha joins forces with the city's blacklisted in order to blur the lines between the common man and the elite, unravel the mysteries in her marriage, and decide once and for all if she will defy the grimoire and face the brutal consequences.

As secrets unfold, will Agatha continue to slay on behalf of the grimoire, or forge an uncharted history with her unlikely allies?

Entrancing

This is a fantastic story line, I can’t wait to move on to the next book

More please

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS! The slow burn, the magic, the sisters! All of it! Looking forward to. Book two!

Sumptuous, atmospheric, a really bewitching read!

My husband and I listened to this book together and both loved it! The female and male leads are daring, intelligent, and beautifully kind though their cruel world tries to demand otherwise. The world is fascinating. The pacing of the story keeps you on edge, wondering with the characters what mysteries are unfolding (but maintains an easy-to-follow-along simplicity). We would definitely recommend it!

Amazing book, amazing narration.

The perfect gothic and witchy read for the fall. So many amazing quotes throughout. Wonderful touching on subjects such as classism, oppression, political control, and religion.

HOLY COW

I downloaded this at 8am & wasn’t finished until 930 the same day. I couldn’t put it down. It was incredibly incredible!!! I can’t wait for the next book ❤️❤️❤️

Excellent story

Fantasy is not my go-to genre but thought I’d give it a try. I was transported into a magical world of witches (the good kind) and other fantastical characters. Thoroughly enjoyed and ready to read the next in the series. Kudos to JL Vampa’s creativity and ability to weave such a special story.

Good romantasy!

Loved the story line, good slow burn, and the twists! I’m excited for the rest!

A gripping tale from start to finish

I have found my new favorite author! Autumn of the Grimoire is page turning tale that keeps you locked in your seat from the very beginning. I found myself falling in love with the characters and their plights. The main character Agatha, is truly a force to be reckoned with. If you love magic, mystery and adventure this is the tale for you. I can’t wait for book 2 to come out!

One of my fave listens so far this year!

Love the mixing of different fantasy archetypes! Witches, Gods, myths, prophecies, monarchies…and of course societal wrongs to be righted in the battle of good vs. evil (both ancient and current.) Nothing earth-shatteringly “brand new” in theory; but I found the material refreshingly creative and not overly obvious. The story was extremely well written and intriguing. I can’t wait for the next one!
