This Year's Best New Fantasy Books Will Fill Your Days With Magic

Inspired by the real history of the European witch trials in 1500s Germany, "Night of the Witch" by Sara Raasch and Beth Revis follows a witch and a hunter whose lives are inextricably entwined. Fritzi is the last witch standing after her coven is destroyed, and she vows revenge on the leader of the hexenjägers — the witch hunters. Otto is among those hunters, but it's only a cover; he's actually there in hopes of bringing them down after his mother was wrongfully killed by them. Fritzi and Otto reach a tentative truce and join forces, but the truth they'll uncover is more dangerous and deadly than they ever thought.
