DescriptionNo one is perfect—not even a witch. Witches have amazing power at their fingertips to do unbelievable things. That magic can come in really handy sometimes too. They can make someone fall in love, poison an apple to enact a sleeping curse, banish an enemy to an alternate reality, or just conjure up some Nutella when there is none in the house.
But what happens when those spells go horribly awry? SonofaWitch! contains six humorous contemporary fantasy stories of magic spells gone wrong by Laura VanArendonk Baugh, Sara Dobie Bauer, Lissa Marie Redmond, Frances Pauli, Mara Malins, and Adam Millard. Table of Contents“Good Spell Gone Bug” by Laura VanArendonk Baugh
She wants to get rid of a tattoo, and that's not so unusual. Sure, this tattoo is magical. Sure, there are cockroaches and a playful kitten and a local crime lord to interfere, but really, what could go wrong? “The Trouble with Love Spells” by Sara Dobie Bauer Talented witch, Violet, has been crushing on her barista for the past year. Maxwell James is possibly the only thing more gorgeous than the famed mansions of her Charleston hometown, which is why Violet decides to do a spell that'll make him notice her. Imagine her surprise when she wakes up... different. “All the Petty Curses” by Lissa Marie Redmond As James struggles to manage a coffee shop, the Fair Folk who have adopted it as their second home come to him to solve their problems. Can James convince a witch to lift an ages old curse for Scarlet? And if he can, will Scarlet be able to live with the consequences? “The Perfect Mate Fiasco” by Frances Pauli Rowan's perfect love spell goes awry when her Golden Retriever decides to lend a paw. Now, she's got a man-sized dog problem that no obedience class is going to fix, and her search for love takes a wild turn into ridiculous territory. "A Matter of Perspective" by Mara Malins It's just another day, another failed potion, in Magick class for Olyvar Caudwell. His instructor repeatedly tells him he'll never amount to anything, despite the magick that runs deep in the Cauldwell family. When he finds himself in a field in a time period he can't identify, Olyvar's unsure of his next move. Can he escape unscathed, or is he doomed to be the worst in everything he does? “A Poppet Named Dave” by Adam Millard Unreciprocated love is a dreadful thing. No one knows it more than River Everbleed, who goes largely unnoticed by the object of her affection, Dave Quinn. The only thing is, River knows a thing or two about magic (although that's about the extent of her knowledge). If only she could get Dave to love her. If only she could figure out how to do that without turning Dave into an anthropomorphic voodoo doll. About the Anthologist
Trysh Thompson has written just about every form of non-fiction you can think of—everything from news, movie reviews, magazine columns, marketing hype, software manuals, and was even an editorial assistant on a gardening book no one has ever read (The 7-Minute Organic Garden—see, you’ve never heard of it, have you?). To keep from being slowly and torturously bored to death by her day job, she turned to fiction as means of escape—reading it, writing it, and editing it. She also edited the geek romance anthology Covalent Bonds.

--Long and Short Reviews "SonofaWitch! is a delightful read…the stories in this collection are craftily written, and there is delight for those who appreciate the writer’s craft." --The Future Fire "Each story was very different even though they were all about witches and magic. I can't pick a favourite story as I really liked them all equally. I will certainly be looking for more books by these authors." --NovelNatterlr "Six tales that illustrate the humour and chaos that ensues when a spell goes awry. I have to say I enjoyed all the stories in this short anthology…Heartily recommend for all fans of funny romance." —Mad Librarian "This book is great fun to read. It's about young witches learning spells and managing to mess them up. Most are hoping for love, but what they get is not what they really wanted..." --The Book Faerie "SONOFAWITCH! is a quick and fun compilation of stories about witches having various sorts of misadventures…the stories in SONOFAWITCH! were entertaining and fun to read." --All Things Urban Fantasy "[SonofaWitch! is] absolutely the best thing I've read in AGES…I highly recommend it for a few good laughs, and I'll be looking for more works by these authors in the future.
