"Spellcaster is a macabre take on a magic-focused reality show competition that delves into deep societal hardships, including celebrity obsession with elite vampire cliques and species relations/tensions, which comes with stereotyping and bigotry, competitor alliances and, in turn, hate crimes and hazing, all played out with a full cast of unique, relatable, and vibrant characters-and lots of action amidst gut-wrenching emotional turmoil." - L.B. Carter, author of Body Snatcher

"Nikki Jefford is back and doing what she does best: writing about a strong female character who triumphs against all the odds." - Goodreads Review
