Return to the magical world of witches, royalty and curses in this spellbinding sequel to Witchspark.
Miss Hegotty's Secret Society of Witches has a lot of work to do.
The Department of Isle-Spark Regulation is up to no good. For Princess Victoria at the palace, this means possibly losing her powers for ever. And for Eglantine Bury, her magical home can't stop sneezing, causing total chaos with each "ACHOO!"
As if that wasn't enough to worry about, Eglantine's house isn't the only magical being falling mysteriously ill. With dragons and gargoyles getting sicker and sicker, the witches will have to use time travel, disguise spells and genie wishes to uncover the truth...before it's too late.

Dominique Valente is an absolute master of charm, warmth, and cosy magic. Witchlight is a perfect continuation of Witchspark - a true delight to lose myself in, and to be enveloped once more by the arms of the magical living house, Huswyvern. This is a book to curl up on the sofa with on an autumn day and let the magic wrap around you like a favourite blanket. -- Vashti Hardy
A joyous conclusion to this delightful duology, filled with all the magical goodness I could hope for. Absolute witchy perfection. -- Bex Hogan
A spellbinding sequel, oozing with cosy charm, Witchlight whisks readers back to the gloriously inventive Magic Isles to join Eglantine, Princess Victoria and the gang on another adventure. The perfect treat for lovers of charming historical fantasy. -- Jennifer Bell
Witchlight is one of the best, most original and delightful magical stories I've read in a long time! With brilliant well-rounded aspirational characters and some amazingly inventive ideas I've never come across before! It's a whirlwind of joy that feels like you're being wrapped up in the cosiest blanket of magic and wonder.
And I never thought it possible to feel so much love for an inanimate object, but this book will have you wanting to be best friends with a coat-rack, a pair of boots and a very excitable footstool.
Witchlight has all the same feelings as watching my favourite childhood Disney film.
Witchlight is a wonderfully inventive story brimming with wit, charm and...well, actual charms. Funny, thrilling, and thumping with heart in equal measure - this is the perfect series to bring joy and magic into your life. -- Jack Meggitt-Phillips, best-selling author of The Beast and the Bethany

I think Eglantine has become one of fantasy's strongest heroines too and through this authentic disabled representation, she is an inspiration to so many. If you loved The Hatmakers, Harry Potter, The House At The Edge of Magic & Encanto then you'll adore Witchlight! * Check 'Em Out Books blog *

This was yet another unputtdownable magical adventure story from author Dominique Valente... This book is a magical page-turner of an adventure story but it also packs a powerful punch in terms of strong, important themes with its disabled protagonist, themes of fighting for injustice and against prejudice (of the magical beings) and toxic masculinity... Five huge stars from us. * Mini Travellers blog *
This lively sequel for 8-12 year olds closes the fun-filled and immersive magical fantasy duology. * School Reading List *
