Thick Witch Travels

In this highly anticipated sequel to Fat Witch Summer, Thrash and her friends are headed to Europa for an enchanted gap year—but can their coven survive new countries, new crushes, and a mysterious mentor with secrets of his own?

A year after finding her voice and her coven, Thrash is ready to make memories with her best friends Cresca, Saki, and Em. But everyone seems to have their own vision for the trip: Em is on a mission to find summer love, Saki’s dodging romance entirely, and Cresca… might be falling into something darker. Determined to keep their coven together, Thrash signs them up for an apprenticeship at the famed Wainwood Academy under the eccentric Fae architect Fernicus Wainwood.

But their vacation detours fast when a desperate familiar appears, begging Thrash to help unravel a powerful and dangerous spell. Suddenly, the girls are forced to navigate blood magic, royal politics, and the bonds between witches and familiars. And if that wasn’t enough, Thrash begins to suspect she might be catching feelings for Cresca.

As her magic deepens and her relationships shift, Thrash must decide if she is the kind of witch who follows the rules—or breaks them to set others free.

A wildly imaginative adventure infused with Ives’ unique magic, Thick Witch Travels is a story about growing up, growing apart, and loving your friends enough to let them change.
