The witchs tears by Katharine Corr ( Book ) 10 editions published.

Book 1 (Daughter of Darkness) will be out in August 2022 and book 2 in August 2023. But she has not transformed for years, not since witnessing the death of her mother - ripped apart by hawks that have supposedly been extinct since the long-ago War of the Raptors. Our new duology is House Of Shadows, also with Hot Key.

We are authors of The Witch’s Kiss Trilogy (HarperCollins) and the Solanum Duology (Hot Key Books), including A Throne Of Swans (which topped the Amazon chart as the best seller in fantasy romance for young adults) and A Crown Of Talons. A Throne of Swans is loosely based on the tale of Swan Lake set in a rich and fascinating fantasy world, it follows the story of Aderyn of Atratys, an inexperienced eighteen year old who, after her father’s death, became the Protector of an entire dominion. When we both decided to write novels – on account of fictional people being much easier to deal with than real ones – it was obvious we should do it together. We both studied history at university and went to work in London for a bit. After spending our childhood in Essex, we now live ten minutes away from each other in Surrey. We are sisters and best friends (try writing a book with someone else and you’ll see why that last bit is kind of important).
