It’s about family and love and trust, bigotry, heartache, loss, murder and metamorphosis.” – Michelle Helen Fritz, author of A Court Of Broken Dreams & Curses“For fans of the supernatural genre, this book is a must-read. Jefford not only introduces a strong female lead in Haylee, but also delivers a plot brimming with suspense and unexpected twists.” – Bookish_Mum“Spellcaster is a macabre take on a magic-focused reality show competition that delves into deep societal hardships, including celebrity obsession with elite vampire cliques and species relations/tensions, which comes with stereotyping and bigotry, competitor alliances and, in turn, hate crimes and hazing, all played out with a full cast of unique, relatable, and vibrant characters—and lots of action amidst gut-wrenching emotional turmoil.” – L.B. Carter, author of Body Snatcher“Nikki Jefford is back and doing what she does best: writing about a strong female character who triumphs against all the odds.” – Goodreads Review
