Book Synopsis
The last witch on Earth takes on interdimensional invaders, tentacled overlords, and office politics in this fun, funny, and fast-paced urban fantasy series.
The witch of Tophet County has three primary preoccupations: Kentucky bourbon, Amish romance novels . . . and protecting her true identity from the chthonic monsters who rule humanity with an iron tentacle.
Despite her best efforts to get fired, the witch is trapped in a draconian, century-long contract that condemns her to work for the Archons of the Nether Realms in the banal misery of county government. But when she accidentally pleases her many-armed overlords, the Dread Lord of Human Resources curses her with an unwanted promotion. And it involves meetings.
As she enters a new bureaucratic hellscape, the witch is assigned to lead a task force investigating recent attacks on senior Archons. Fortunately, her boss has offered her a deal: if she solves the case, they'll knock fifteen years off her sentence. And if that doesn't work out, well, she just might have to find a way to help take down the tentaclarchy--or else be doomed to permanent civil servitude . . .
Filled with quick-witted banter, hilariously relatable office politics, and fantastically original characters, The Witch of Tophet County is Lovecraft meets Parks and Recreation--an explosive start to a new series guaranteed to have you glued to your seat until the very last page.
The first volume of the hit horror fantasy series--with more than 100,000 views on Royal Road--now available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook!
Review Quotes
_"[The Witch of Tophet County]_ explores zany situations with a large cast of strange characters, effectively playing off the concept of an office in a fantasy realm." --**_Kirkus Reviews_**
