Sequel to Some Practical Magic.
When Endora Bast is asked for help by the very witches’ Tribunal that reduced her
magic to almost nothing, she wonders why she should worry about their problem. Forty
years before, they had punished her harshly for a transgression of the heart. Now, they
desperately need her to save the entire witch community.
Endora is in for a shock when she’s told she must stop her old nemesis, Obsidian
Ashmedai, before he regains his full magical powers. If she does, she’ll regain all of her
magic and have her record expunged. If she doesn’t, Ashmedai will become the most
powerful witch in the world.
Only one other witch can help Endora defeat Ashmedai. Marcus Morion, her former lover
and cosmic twin, was punished by the Tribunal for the same transgression Endora
made. On Tribunal orders, Endora and Marcus have been separated for forty years.
Now, without benefit of full magical powers, they must cooperate to defeat Ashmedai.
Failure will cost them their lives and subject all witchkind to Ashmedai’s evil rule.
But can Endora and Marcus overcome forty years of doubt about a prematurely severed
relationship and cooperate for the greater good, or will the passion they once felt for
each other interfere with their mission to save the world?
