Publisher's summary

She’s running out of time. And so is the world.

After learning on her sixtieth birthday that she’s one of five Crones destined to save the world, Claire Emerson has been desperately trying to acquire the lifetime of magic she missed out on. But the mages who are out to destroy everything she loves aren’t waiting, and when one of the other Crones ends up on Claire’s doorstep—wounded and unconscious—Claire knows she’s out of time.

Leaving the safety of her warded house, she goes in search of the remaining Crones… only to find them under siege by the mages and their nearly indestructible monster. And without control over her powerful elemental magic, she has no idea how to rescue them.

Can Claire harness her powers in time to help her fellow Crones defeat the mages—or will her efforts bring even greater disaster?

So fun!

I love this series. The author and narrator, both, have created another hit with this one. I can’t wait to add the next three to my audible library!

The path becoming who you are 💕💕

Story continued to move. Nice to hear the reality of older women finding herself and her true power. Not just the concept of magic but the power within all of us if we only accept it.

Loved the characters all older and strong

That Claire didn’t embrace her power and find her voice. For me I’m very vocal and say pretty much anything that’s pops in.

Virtue signaling was unnecessary!

I was ok with the main character being weak, as she grows into her power.

I was not okay with the virtue signal -it had nothing to do with the story line and frankly is an insult to crones and women everywhere.


It’s a short mention, so far irrelevant to the story and I don’t understand why it’s even included except as a virtue signal. That one of the crones is trans and has preferred pronouns was disappointing. As I said had nothing to do with the story.
