About this listen

One of the most popular writers of paranormal fiction and the number-one New York Times best-selling author returns with a rollicking new novel in her Otherworld series.

At 21, Savannah Levine - orphaned daughter of a notorious dark witch and an equally notorious cutthroat sorcerer - considers herself a full-fledged member of the otherworld. The once rebellious teen has grown into a six-foot-tall, motorcycle-riding jaw-dropper, with an impressive knowledge of and ability to perform spells.

The only problem is, she's having a hard time convincing her adoptive parents, Paige and Lucas, to take her seriously as an adult. She's working as the research assistant at the detective agency they founded, and when they take off on a romantic vacation alone, leaving her in charge, Savannah finds herself itching for a case to call her own. (She's also itching for Adam, her longtime friend and colleague, to see her as more than just a little girl, but that's another matter.)

Suddenly, Savannah gets the chance she's been waiting for: Recruited by another supernatural detective, she travels to Columbus, Washington, a small, dying town. Two troubled young women have been found in an abandoned warehouse, murdered. Now a third woman's dead, and on closer inspection small details point to darker forces at play. Savannah feels certain she can handle the case, but with signs of supernatural activity appearing at every turn, things quickly become more serious - and far more dangerous - than she realizes.

Critic reviews

"Armstrong skillfully juggles her twisty plot, weaving in characters from previous novels as she builds to a fast-paced conclusion. This supernatural mystery is unabashedly aimed at fans of Charlaine Harris and Stephenie Meyer, and may well hit the mark." ( Publishers Weekly)

Tired of listening to stories about humans? Consider the werewolf! Taking various forms over the course of centuries and mythologies, often as flesh-devourers, werewolves now commonly appear in fantasy and romance novels as shape-shifters. The shape-shifting element in werewolves' stories has almost humanized them, depicting the internal struggles we all face within ourselves, on some level or another.

Engaging Storyline • Compelling Characters • Intriguing Plot Twists • Immersive Storytelling • Excellent Voice Acting

I have read the entire series. My favorite is BITTEN and FROSTBITTEN but I love them all. I didn't like Savannah Levine very much in the earlier books, she was such a snot. However, grown up Savannah is awesome. I loved this book, as I loved all of Kelleys books. Do yourself a favor, read all her books in this series from the beginning to end. Awesome!

Another great book by Kelley Armstrong!

Oh I love adult Savannah! She is still young and a little bratty but I loved how she just wants to prove she is no longer a child. She did a great job with her first investigation and I loved how we get to see her softer side a little with friendships and kids. I missed Adam through most of the book and was happy when he finally came to help.

The narration is good but I'll be honest I kept thinking about Sookie Stackhouse ;)

I really enjoyed this book, anxiously now waiting for next in series. The ending is really a cliff hanger. Now I have to wait patiently for next book in series. First time I have read a book with quite and abrupt unfinished ending.

Anxiously awaiting for book 12 in Series

What did you love best about Waking the Witch?

Getting to know Savannah as a complex, adult character.

Would you recommend Waking the Witch to your friends? Why or why not?

Maybe, but I'm pretty pissed that I now have to pay another 20 bucks to find out what happens. The story doesn't wrap up, major things are just left hanging. It's like a tv season finale, but instead of having a big 2 hour finale she just wrote half the story and then sold it as a full book. It's much shorter than the others without even finishing the story. I'm so mad right now that I don't even want to buy any more of her books, although I am too attached to this series not to buy the last 2. I think I'll move on to another writer after this though.

What about Johanna Parker’s performance did you like?

She did a good job.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

PART 1

It's good......for half a book.

I've wanted a Savannah story since Dime Store Magic. I LOVED it! I can't wait to keep going.


My ONLY little complaint is that I wouldn't have picked Johanna Parker to narrate. Don't get me wrong, she does a great job reading, but something wasn't quite right. Parker does have a slightly southern drawl (much less though, than when she's reading Sookie) and it was a little weird in the Northwest.

Go Savannah!

The last two books in this series were good but not as great as the earlier ones. This book returned the series to greatness. I loved reading about Savannah - a character we've known since her childhood - come into adulthood. The narrator on this one was a big improvement over the last one too. On to the next one!

Great story and narrator

The story was ok, but for a series that has never had this type of ending before this cliffhanger was really annoying.

Ending was annoying

the narrator wasn't the best
