A Gathering of Crones

The Crone Wars, Book 2

By: Lydia M. Hawke

Narrated by: Carol Schneider

She’s running out of time. And so is the world.

After learning on her sixtieth birthday that she’s one of five Crones destined to save the world, Claire Emerson has been desperately trying to acquire the lifetime of magic she missed out on. But the mages who are out to destroy everything she loves aren’t waiting, and when one of the other Crones ends up on Claire’s doorstep—wounded and unconscious—Claire knows she’s out of time.

Leaving the safety of her warded house, she goes in search of the remaining Crones… only to find them under siege by the mages and their nearly indestructible monster. And without control over her powerful elemental magic, she has no idea how to rescue them.

Can Claire harness her powers in time to help her fellow Crones defeat the mages—or will her efforts bring even greater disaster?

So fun!

I love this series. The author and narrator, both, have created another hit with this one. I can’t wait to add the next three to my audible library!

Do not read this book out of sequence! You’ll be sorry!

I loved the plot, the twists and turns - and I simply adored the narrator who brought it all to life. Suspend your belief and dive into a magical wild ride. Claire Emerson is a normal woman who finds herself in a supernatural world where anything is possible with her determination and her magic. If she could just control said magic, and her son. Follow her along a highly entertaining ride. And plan on buying the next book in the series, because it’s just that good.

VERY EXCITING! TILL THE VERY END!

I love Claire!! she had to really dig deep and REALIZE her intelligence, cleverness and inner fortitude are Claire's TRUE MAGIC!! its the KEY to everything. I just turned 60 and she is my NEW HERO! BAM!

Loved the characters all older and strong

That Claire didn’t embrace her power and find her voice. For me I’m very vocal and say pretty much anything that’s pops in.

The path becoming who you are 💕💕

Story continued to move. Nice to hear the reality of older women finding herself and her true power. Not just the concept of magic but the power within all of us if we only accept it.
