I’ve never read Kate Elliott’s work before, but what could be a better place to start than a brand new series? The Witch Roads has an eye catching cover that reminds me of the classic epic fantasy from yesteryear. The synopsis doesn’t provide much detail, other than a young courier must guide a noble through perilous territory. Either way, I hope to pick up The Witch Roads when it’s released on June 10, 2025.
Status is hereditary, class is bestowed, trust must be earned.
When an arrogant prince (and his equally arrogant entourage) gets stuck in Orledder Halt as part of brutal political intrigue, competent and sunny deputy courier Elen―once a child slave meant to shield noblemen from the poisonous Pall―is assigned to guide him through the hills to reach his destination.
When she warns him not to enter the haunted Spires, the prince doesn’t heed her advice, and the man who emerges from the towers isn’t the same man who entered.
The journey that follows is fraught with danger. Can a group taught to ignore and despise the lower classes survive with a mere deputy courier as their guide?
The Witch Roads is the latest epic novel by fan favorite, Kate Elliott.
