About The Black Witch by Laurie Forest

Elloren Gardner is the granddaughter of Carnissa Gardner, the last prophesied Black Witch, but she has none of her famous grandmother’s magical power. When Elloren gets the chance to pursue her dream of becoming an apothecary, she joins her brothers at Verpax University, where magical ability carries great weight.

The university brings together people from different backgrounds, including the Icarals, whom Gardnerians regard as sworn enemies. As Elloren faces her family’s legacy and the beliefs she has been taught, this young adult fantasy explores magic, prejudice, and the difficult possibility of trusting those she was raised to fear.
