Books About Magic And Witches Novels & Stories

I’ll keep looking. I glance at another book. The cover reads Spells and Hexes. I run my fingers along with the words and read out loud. ‘Casting spells or cursing ill-fortune on another comes with the cost of one’s own curse. Only spells that mean well will have no negative effect on the caster. Please proceed with caution.’ ‘What does that mean?’ Pipsqueak asks. I shrug my shoulders and continue to read the book. ’Spells and hexes can be cast through many sources. Witches are the most popular known to cast spells and hexes. Spells cast in a group with their coven are longer lasting and harder to break. Arcane Mages work the same way as witches.

WITCHES: THE RISING PLOT The era of witches is gone forgotten by all but a few who has lived through it. However, a teenage girl discovers her powers in an unexpected manner. With the unlike squad she has come to regard as family, what are the challenges they will face in a world predominantly governed by humans? Will they come out whole, alive, unscarred and unscathed? CHAPTER 1 PILOT Clara’s POV:

“That’s never been performed and even if it has been, it’s forbidden.” Getting up, she wandered off towards the section where books lay, stacked high up on shelves against the wall. She reached up and pulled one out, coming back and dropping it in front of me. “Read,” She said, taking her seat. “But first, take notes.” Confused, I stared at her, wondering if I had heard her correctly. “Take notes? “Yes,” “About what?” “Witchcraft is more complicated than stories and ancient history. Let’s move on. If you’re truly curious like you seem to be, then, the least you can do is make notes. That way, you can keep track of what you know and don’t know.

“Let’s try this one. It looks like it might cover witches.” “Alright,” Anna said, and together they opened the book. Inside were entries on hundreds of mystical beings. Some were described in detail—werewolves, dragons, vampires, faes, mages—and others only briefly mentioned. Each creature had a page or two, detailing their origins, abilities, and myths surrounding them. Finally, they reached a section labeled Witches. Rhea’s hands trembled slightly as she turned the page. Her heart was beating fast, her breath caught in her throat. Part of her was terrified of what she might learn—but the other part was desperate to finally know the truth.

Usually, she was boisterous, loudly jabbering on about our roles as witches. Being a witch herself, Sungul was always proud of the status we hold in the world. People would look upon us as if we were gods. Magic was a mystery that most couldn’t understand. It was chaotic, unknowing and seemingly unyielding, and yet to them we were able to control it with a slew of words or a twirl of a wand. To them, being able to wield magic as “flawlessly” as we can was a sign that we were blessed by the gods.

They were trying to understand why I was able to wield the magic then but unable to do so during training. " Unlike mages," Audrey began," Witches have elemental magic. Their magic works with one element. Some have a combination of two or three, but they are rare. The most common of them are the witches that wield fire magic. If you remember, at the battle with the vampires, the rogue witches there only used fire magic as weapons." She stated, reminding me of our fight.

I exit the dungeon without another word. Levi and Ariana join me in researching Wiccan history. “Witches can have a variety of magical powers in addition to the ability to cast spells,” Ariana says while reading a dusty leatherbound manuscript. “What kind of powers does it mention,” I ask. “All kinds! Elemental variances having to do with earth, fire, wind, and water, as well as telekinesis, freezing time, premonition, astral projection, um…oh my moon goddess…” Levi and I stare at her, waiting for her to continue.

my father demanded. She looked between the three of us. “Sit.” None of us did. She clicked her tongue. “Very well.” She crossed the room and pulled an ancient book from a shelf, its spine cracked, pages yellowed and swollen with age. She set it down carefully, as if it might bite. “I don’t know much about witches,” she began. “I don't know a lot about their rituals. Or the depth of their magic. Wolves and witches have never shared knowledge freely.”

The last book she pulled from the library shelves was older than the others, its cracked spine threatening to crumble if she wasn’t careful. The pages smelled faintly of smoke and something bitter, almost like dried herbs. Her eyes skimmed the first lines, but soon she was sitting forward, fully absorbed. It spoke of a time long before the world was divided into hidden realms of supernatural creatures, a time when there was only one race of beings who held true dominion over magic. The witches.
