Witch Slapped — Sarah Noffke

In the 10th installment of the Undoubtable Rose Beaufont series, Dara Rosenberg continues to provide her lilting narration to its clever protagonist. Rose Beaufont must hunt Mater Inferni, the Mother of Witches, and then figure out how to destroy her without destroying herself or all of magic. As the title suggests, this is not a dark, foreboding magical story but one full of smirks and winks. Rosenberg gives depth to the sarcastic and quirky Rose and her cohorts, bringing lightness to the suspenseful story. Although this audiobook can be appreciated on its own, it will have more appeal to those who have already enjoyed the previous volumes. C.F. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine
